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
Code-Projects Online Car Rental System 1.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via the vehicalorcview parameter in /admin/edit-vehicle.php.

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

This is a stored Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Code-Projects Online Car Rental System 1.0. The vehicalorcview parameter in the admin panel file /admin/edit-vehicle.php does not properly sanitize user input, allowing injection of malicious JavaScript that executes when other users (including customers) view vehicle details in the system.

MitigationImplement input validation and context-aware output encoding for the vehicalorcview parameter in edit-vehicle.php. All user-supplied data should be validated against an allowlist and properly escaped before rendering in HTML.

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. Confirm product version is 1.0
    Locate the version information for the Code-Projects Online Car Rental System. This is typically displayed in the footer, an about page, or the admin dashboard. Check any version file or README in the web root.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0
  2. Verify edit-vehicle.php exists
    Locate the file /admin/edit-vehicle.php in the web server's document root. Access the file directly via browser or check the filesystem.
    Affected if The file /admin/edit-vehicle.php exists and is accessible via the web server
  3. Check if vehicalorcview parameter is handled
    Open edit-vehicle.php and locate the code that handles the vehicalorcview parameter. Look for how this parameter receives and processes input.
    Affected if The file contains handling code for the vehicalorcview parameter without proper input sanitization
  4. Inspect database for injected scripts
    Query the database (typically MySQL) used by the application. Look for suspicious script tags or JavaScript code in tables related to vehicles. Search columns that store the vehicalorcview value.
    Affected if The database contains stored malicious JavaScript or HTML tags in vehicle-related records
  5. Verify vehicle viewing is accessible
    Access the vehicle listing or details pages as a regular user or customer. Navigate through the public-facing pages that display vehicle information.
    Affected if Users can view vehicle details and the injected payload executes in the browser

You are affected if you run Code-Projects Online Car Rental System version 1.0 and the vehicalorcview parameter in /admin/edit-vehicle.php is used without sanitization, allowing stored XSS to execute when users view vehicle details.
