SohuTV CacheCloud Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in ServerController
Vulnerability
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in SohuTV CacheCloud versions up to 3.2.0. The issue arises in the 'index' function of the 'ServerController.java' file, where user-controllable parameters are not properly encoded before being displayed on the web page. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute XSS attacks, potentially targeting other users.
Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for reflected cross-site scripting, where an attacker can inject malicious scripts that are executed in the context of the user's browser.
Reproduction
To reproduce this vulnerability, send a POST request to the '/server/index' endpoint with the 'ip' parameter containing a crafted payload that includes JavaScript code, such as an alert function. The 'date' parameter can be left empty. The absence of proper input encoding will result in the execution of the injected script.
