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
Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in idoit pro version 28. This vulnerability allows an attacker to retrieve session details of an authenticated user due to lack of proper sanitization of the following parameters (id,lang,mNavID,name,pID,treeNode,type,view).

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

Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in idoit pro v28 allows attackers to steal session details from authenticated users due to improper sanitization of eight parameters (id, lang, mNavID, name, pID, treeNode, type, view). This is a classic input validation failure enabling session hijacking via malicious script injection.

MitigationImplement proper input validation and output encoding for all affected parameters. Use context-aware sanitization (e.g., htmlspecialchars, Content Security Policy headers) and consider implementing SameSite cookies to mitigate session theft.

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. Identify the installed idoit version
    Access the idoit admin panel or check the version file (typically in the application root or system info page). Look for the version number displayed in the interface or in version-related configuration files.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly version 28 (idoit pro v28)
  2. Locate the affected parameters in HTTP requests
    Identify HTTP requests to the idoit application and examine URL parameters. Specifically look for the eight vulnerable parameters: id, lang, mNavID, name, pID, treeNode, type, and view.
    Affected if Any of these eight parameters (id, lang, mNavID, name, pID, treeNode, type, view) are present in the request URL or form inputs without being properly sanitized
  3. Verify output encoding on the vulnerable parameters
    Submit a test input containing safe HTML characters (e.g., <script>alert(1)</script> or <img src=x onerror=alert(1)>) via each of the eight parameters. Inspect the HTTP response to see if the input is encoded or reflected as-is.
    Affected if The test input is reflected in the response without HTML encoding (e.g., appears as literal <script> tags rather than &lt;script&gt;)
  4. Check for input validation controls
    Examine the application's configuration or source code for input validation mechanisms. Look for the presence of sanitization functions like htmlspecialchars, input filtering, or Content Security Policy headers.
    Affected if No input validation or output encoding is found for the eight vulnerable parameters, and the application accepts and reflects unescaped HTML/JavaScript

A user is affected if they are running idoit pro version 28 AND any of the eight parameters (id, lang, mNavID, name, pID, treeNode, type, view) accept user input without proper sanitization or output encoding, allowing reflected JavaScript execution.
