🟠

Likely Case

Attackers hijack user sessions to perform unauthorized transactions, steal customer information, or deface the POS interface.

🟢

If Mitigated

With proper input validation and output encoding, the attack fails to execute malicious scripts, limiting impact to attempted exploitation logs.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability can be exploited remotely without authentication, making internet-facing instances particularly vulnerable.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal instances are still vulnerable but require attacker access to the internal network.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

The exploit is publicly documented and can be executed remotely without authentication, making it relatively easy to weaponize.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: UNKNOWN

Vendor Advisory: https://itsourcecode.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Check vendor website for security updates. 2. If patch available, download and apply following vendor instructions. 3. Test functionality after patching.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

PHP

Implement server-side input validation to sanitize the 'scripts' parameter before processing.

Implement PHP filter_var() or htmlspecialchars() on scripts parameter

Web Application Firewall

all

Deploy WAF with XSS protection rules to block malicious script injection attempts.

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement Content Security Policy headers to restrict script execution sources
  • Disable or restrict access to the vulnerable /inventory/main/vendors/datatables/unit_testing/templates/ directory

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test by injecting a simple script payload into the 'scripts' parameter and checking if it executes in browser.

Check Version:

Check application version in admin panel or readme files

Verify Fix Applied:

Attempt the same XSS payload after remediation; it should be properly encoded and not execute.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual POST/GET requests to empty_table.php with script tags
  • Multiple failed XSS attempts in web logs

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing <script> tags in parameters
  • Unusual traffic patterns to the vulnerable endpoint

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="*empty_table.php*" AND (param="*<script>*" OR param="*javascript:*")
