CVE-2024-4823
CVE-2024-4823 exposes a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in School ERP Pro+Responsive 1.0. This flaw allows an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript code via several parameters within the '/schoolerp/office_admin/' index, including es_bankacc, es_bank_name, and others. By crafting a specific payload, attackers can target authenticated users, potentially hijacking their browser sessions. The SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) for CVE-2024-4823 is 30, suggesting a lower, but still present, level of risk. While not immediately critical based on the SVRS threshold, this vulnerability, categorized as CWE-79, is still a concern, as it can lead to unauthorized actions within the application if exploited. Immediate patching is recommended, especially given it has been tagged as "In The Wild", indicating active exploitation attempts. This vulnerability can compromise user data and system integrity, making it important to mitigate security concerns promptly.
Description
CVE-2024-4823 is a vulnerability with a CVSS score of 0, indicating a low severity level. However, SOCRadar's SVRS assigns it a score of 34, highlighting the potential for exploitation.
