Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SocialNetwork version 1.2.1

Description A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue was discovered due to insufficient filtration of user-supplied data, specifically the mail variable, passed to the "SocialNetwork-andrea/app/template/pw forgot.php" URL. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a browser within the context of the vulnerable website.

Recommendations For SocialNetwork version 1.2.1, apply the patch available to fix the insufficient filtration of user-supplied data. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "SocialNetwork-andrea/app/template/pw forgot.php" URL until the patch is applied.
