CVE-2022-42747
CandidATS version 3.0.0 on 'sortBy' of the 'ajax.php' resource, allows an external attacker to steal the cookie of arbitrary users.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
CandidATS version 3.0.0 on 'sortBy' of the 'ajax.php' resource, allows an external attacker to steal the cookie of arbitrary users. This is possible because the application application does not properly validate user input against XSS attacks.
