CVE-2024-27300 Description

phpMyFAQ is an open source FAQ web application for PHP 8.1+ and MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases.

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.
