Emitted when user-controlled input can be passed into to an `echo` statement.
|
||||
|
||||
## Risk
|
||||
|
||||
This could lead to a potential Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. Using a XSS vulnerability, an attacker could inject malicious JavaScript and execute any action JavaScript could do. Examples include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Stealing authentication material (e.g. cookies, JWT tokens)
|
||||
- Exfiltrate sensitive information by reading the DOM
|
||||
- Keylog entries on the website (e.g. fake login form)
|
||||
|
||||
Wheter this is exploitable or not depends on a few conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
- Is an executable mimetype set? (e.g. `text/html`)
|
||||
- Is the content served inline or as attachment? (`Content-Disposition`)
|
||||
- Is the output properly sanitized? (e.g. stripping all HTML tags or having an allowlist of allowed characters)
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
<?php

|
||||
echo $name;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Mitigations
|
||||
|
||||
- Sanitize user-input by using functions such as `htmlentities` or use an allowlist.
|
||||
- Set all cookies to `HTTPOnly`.
|
||||
- Consider using Content Security Policy (CSP), to limit the risk of XSS vulnerabilities.
