Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Vt-Forum Lite versions 1.3 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This can be achieved via the StrMsg or Topic ID parameter to various API endpoints, including "vf info.asp", "vf newtopic.asp", "vf settings.asp", and "vf replytopic.asp".

Recommendations For Vt-Forum Lite versions 1.3 and earlier, consider restricting access to the vulnerable API endpoints "vf info.asp", "vf newtopic.asp", "vf settings.asp", and "vf replytopic.asp" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the StrMsg and Topic ID parameters in these endpoints until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
