What is CVE-2025-51411?
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in the Institute-of-Current-Students application, specifically affecting version 1.0. This vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of user input in the email parameter of the /postquerypublic endpoint. An attacker can exploit this weakness by crafting a malicious URL or a form submission that, when executed by a victim, reflects arbitrary JavaScript code in their browser. This exploit can lead to severe consequences, including session hijacking and credential theft, as it enables unauthorized code execution within the context of the victim's session.
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.
