Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) issue in the Student Result Management System 1.0. It allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via the title or announcement parameters in the new_announcement.php file. The attack can be executed remotely and an exploit is publicly available.
