A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in ProjectSend version r2029, specifically within the thumbnails-regenerate.php file. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript by sending unsanitized values through the start_date and end_date GET parameters. The injected scripts are echoed back into the HTML as attribute values without proper escaping. Exploitation of this vulnerability requires the attacker to craft a malicious URL that, when clicked by an authenticated user with edit_settings permissions, executes the injected scripts in the context of the application.
