CVE-2026-4596 Details
Description
A vulnerability was identified in projectworlds Lawyer Management System 1.0. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /lawyers.php. The manipulation of the argument first_Name leads to cross site scripting. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in Projectworlds Lawyer Management System version 1.0. The issue arises in the lawyer registration process, specifically within the 'first_Name' input field, which is not properly sanitized before being stored in the database. This unsanitized data is later displayed on the '/lawyers.php' page, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts that are executed in the context of the user's browser. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, and the injected scripts can steal session cookies, hijack user sessions, and perform unauthorized actions on behalf of users.
To address this vulnerability, implement proper input validation and output encoding. Ensure that user input is sanitized before being stored and that data is encoded before being displayed on the website. Additionally, consider setting the HttpOnly flag on session cookies to protect them from being accessed by client-side scripts.
