Description

edoc-doctor-appointment-system v1.0.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in admin/add-session.php via the "title" parameter.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Directly enforces proper validation of the 'title' parameter in admin/add-session.php to block malicious script injection from improper input validation.

SI-15 Information Output Filtering good match
prevent

Mandates filtering and encoding of user-supplied 'title' data on output to prevent XSS script execution in victims' browsers.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

Establishes a risk-based process to identify, prioritize, test, and remediate the specific XSS flaw in the vulnerable application component.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2025-66918 is a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in edoc-doctor-appointment-system version 1.0.1, specifically affecting the admin/add-session.php component through the "title" parameter. This issue stems from CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation) and CWE-79 (Cross-site Scripting), earning a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). Published on 2025-12-11, it allows remote exploitation over the network with low complexity.

An authenticated attacker with low privileges (PR:L), such as an admin user, can exploit the vulnerability by injecting a malicious script into the "title" parameter during session addition. Upon execution in a victim's browser viewing the affected page, this enables high-impact outcomes, including compromise of confidentiality through data theft (e.g., session tokens), integrity violations via unauthorized actions, and availability disruptions, all without requiring user interaction.

Mitigation guidance and further details are available in the referenced GitHub repositories: the project source at https://github.com/HashenUdara/edoc-doctor-appointment-system and vulnerability research at https://github.com/omkaryepre/vulnerability-research/blob/main/CVE-2025-66918/readme.md. Security practitioners should review these for patches, input validation fixes, or workarounds specific to the application.
