Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions NatterChat version 1.12

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, potentially resulting from cross-site scripting (XSS) in SQL error messages. This can be achieved via the txtUsername parameter to "registerDo.asp" or the txtRoomName parameter to "room new.asp".

Recommendations For NatterChat version 1.12, consider restricting access to the "registerDo.asp" and "room new.asp" endpoints to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the txtUsername and txtRoomName parameters in the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
