Technical details
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in code-projects Employee Management System 1.0 within the file /eloginwel.php. The vulnerability is caused by the application failing to properly sanitize or HTML-escape the 'id' GET parameter before reflecting it into the 'href' attributes of navigation links (e.g., HOME, My Profile). A remote attacker can exploit this by crafting a malicious URL containing a JavaScript payload. When a victim visits this URL, the payload executes in the context of their browser session, potentially allowing for session cookie theft or account takeover. A public exploit (PoC) has been disclosed.
