Title: JShop E-Commerce Suite xSearch Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

JShop E-Commerce Suite is a web based E-Commerce system implemented in PHP. It is back-ended by a MySQL database.

A vulnerability has been reported to exist in JShop E-Commerce that may allow a remote user to execute HTML or script code in a user's browser.

The issue is reported to exist due to improper sanitizing of user-supplied data. It has been reported that HTML and script code may be parsed via the 'xSearch' URI parameter of the 'search.php' script. This vulnerability makes it possible for an attacker to construct a malicious link containing HTML or script code that may be rendered in a user's browser upon visiting that link. This attack would occur in the security context of the site.

Successful exploitation of this attack may allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible.
