CVE-2018-19509

Because it is possible to insert arbitrary strings into the database, any JavaScript could be executed by the administrator, leading to XSS.

MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 1.06%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.06%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

wg7.php in Webgalamb 7.0 makes opportunistic calls to htmlspecialchars() instead of using a templating engine with proper contextual encoding. Because it is possible to insert arbitrary strings into the database, any JavaScript could be executed by the administrator, leading to XSS.
