Title
phpMyFAQ Stored XSS at user email
Summary
phpMyFAQ is an open source FAQ web application for PHP 8.1+ and MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases. The `email` field in phpMyFAQ's user control panel page is vulnerable to stored XSS attacks due to the inadequacy of PHP's `FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL` function, which only validates the email format, not its content. This vulnerability enables an attacker to execute arbitrary client-side JavaScript within the context of another user's phpMyFAQ session. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.6.

The `email` field in phpMyFAQ\u0027s user control panel page is vulnerable to stored XSS attacks due to the inadequacy of PHP\u0027s `FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL` function, which only validates the email format, not its content. This vulnerability enables an attacker to execute arbitrary client-side JavaScript within the context of another user\u0027s phpMyFAQ session. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.6."

Summary
phpMyFAQ stored Cross-site Scripting at user email
Details
Summary
The email field in phpMyFAQ's user control panel page is vulnerable to stored XSS attacks due to the inadequacy of PHP's FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL function, which only validates the email format, not its content. This vulnerability enables an attacker to execute arbitrary client-side JavaScript within the context of another user's phpMyFAQ session.
Details
Despite using PHP's FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL function, the email field does not adequately validate the content of the email address. This means that malicious input, such as JavaScript code, can be accepted and stored in the database without being detected. When the stored data is retrieved and displayed on web pages, it is not properly sanitized to remove or neutralize any potentially harmful content, such as JavaScript code which leads to Stored XSS.
PoC
-
Login as any user, go to the user control panel, change email to any valid email and intercept the request.
-
Modify the request’s email parameter to the following payload:
"><svg/onload=confirm('XSS')>"@x.y -
Send the request and see that the XSS is triggered in the user control panel page.
-
Also affects any user who browse to "../admin/?action=user&user_action=listallusers"
Impact
This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary client side JavaScript within the context of another user's phpMyFAQ session.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
