What is CVE-2021-36352?

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists within Care2x Hospital Information Management version 2.7 Alpha. This flaw can be exploited via POST requests on the patient registration page (/modules/registration_admission/patient_register.php) through parameters such as 'name_middle', 'addr_str', 'station', 'name_maiden', 'name_2', and 'name_3'. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts that can execute within a user's browser session, potentially compromising user data and application integrity.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
