Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in SingMR HouseRent 1.0. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /toAdminUpdateHousePage?hID=30. The manipulation leads to cross site scripting. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Stored XSS vulnerability in SingMR HouseRent 1.0 in the /toAdminUpdateHousePage endpoint (hID parameter). The application fails to sanitize user input before rendering it in the page, allowing injection of malicious JavaScript that executes when administrators view the affected page.

MitigationImplement proper input validation and output encoding/escaping for all user-supplied values before rendering in HTML context. Use context-aware sanitization libraries and apply Content Security Policy headers.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify SingMR HouseRent is deployed
    Identify if the application is running by accessing the base URL and checking for HouseRent-related content or login pages
    Affected if The application is accessible and appears to be SingMR HouseRent
  2. Confirm /toAdminUpdateHousePage endpoint exists
    Access the endpoint directly (e.g., GET /toAdminUpdateHousePage?hID=1) and verify the page loads with a house update form or related content
    Affected if The endpoint responds and displays admin house update functionality
  3. Test hID parameter for reflected input
    Submit a benign test payload via the hID parameter (e.g., ?hID=<script>alert('test')</script>) and inspect the response HTML to see if the payload appears unescaped
    Affected if The response contains the raw script tags or other HTML markup without encoding
  4. Verify stored XSS persistence
    If there is an interface to create/update house data using the hID parameter, inject an XSS payload and then access the admin page again to confirm the payload persists and executes
    Affected if Injected JavaScript executes when the admin page is loaded with the affected hID value
  5. Check for output encoding in page source
    View the page source of the admin update page and search for the hID value to see if it is wrapped in proper HTML encoding (e.g., &lt;script&gt; instead of <script>)
    Affected if User-supplied hID values render as raw HTML/JavaScript without escaping

If the SingMR HouseRent application is running and the /toAdminUpdateHousePage endpoint reflects or stores the hID parameter input without HTML encoding, the environment is affected by this stored XSS vulnerability.
