Executive Summary

CVE-2026-78060 is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Stock Management System v1.0. It affects the file /php_action/getOrderReport.php where user input from clientName and clientContact fields is stored in a database without sanitization. When reports are generated, these inputs are directly output into HTML without encoding, allowing malicious scripts to execute in users' browsers.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, inspect the Stock Management System for stored XSS in the /php_action/getOrderReport.php file. Check if clientName and clientContact inputs are stored without sanitization. Review database entries for malicious scripts in these fields. Monitor network traffic for unusual HTML report generation requests.

Impact Analysis

Attackers can inject malicious scripts via order forms. These scripts execute when users generate or view reports, potentially stealing cookies, session tokens, or performing other actions. A single malicious order could compromise all administrators viewing reports within the affected date range.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, violating GDPR's data protection principles and HIPAA's security requirements for protected health information. Non-compliance may result in legal penalties and reputational damage.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately sanitize all user inputs (clientName, clientContact) using htmlspecialchars() before storing in the database. Update the getOrderReport.php file to properly encode output using htmlspecialchars(). Consider implementing a web application firewall to filter malicious payloads.
