What is CVE-2025-63238?

A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in LimeSurvey, affecting versions prior to 6.15.11+250909. This vulnerability arises from insufficient validation of the 'gid' parameter in the getInstance() function within the application/models/QuestionCreate.php file. Attackers can exploit this weakness by crafting malicious URLs that, when accessed by a logged-in user, can execute arbitrary script code within their browser session, potentially leading to session hijacking and unauthorized actions.
