What is CVE-2023-53939?

TinyWebGallery v2.5 is susceptible to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, allowing authenticated users to insert malicious scripts via the folder name parameter. This vulnerability enables attackers to manipulate album folder names, embedding script tags that may execute arbitrary JavaScript when other users access the affected gallery pages. Consequently, this exposure poses significant security risks, potentially leading to unauthorized actions in the context of affected users.
