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 · uneditedA stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Serosoft Solutions Pvt Ltd Academia Student Information System (SIS) EagleR v1.0.118 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via injecting a crafted payload into the First Name parameter at /rest/staffResource/update.
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 confidenceStored XSS vulnerability in Academia SIS EagleR v1.0.118 allows malicious JavaScript to be injected via the First Name parameter at /rest/staffResource/update endpoint. The payload is stored in the database and executes when other users view the affected data.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify installed Academia SIS versionCheck the software version displayed in the application admin panel, about page, or version file. This is typically found under Help > About, Settings > System Info, or in a version.properties/version.json file in the installation directory.Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0.118 (eagler-1.0.118)
-
Confirm vulnerable endpoint existsVerify that the /rest/staffResource/update REST endpoint is accessible in the application. This can be confirmed by reviewing the application's API documentation or by checking if the endpoint responds to HTTP requests.Affected if The endpoint exists and is accessible in the environment
-
Inspect database for stored XSS payloads in First NameQuery the staff or user database table that stores the First Name field. Look for HTML tags, script tags, or JavaScript code patterns (such as <script>, javascript:, onerror=, onload=) stored within First Name values.Affected if Any First Name records contain HTML or script injection patterns
-
Check staff record display for unencoded outputReview how staff member First Names are rendered in the user interface. When viewing staff profiles, employee directories, or any page displaying staff member data, verify whether the First Name is displayed with proper HTML encoding or as raw unencoded text.Affected if Staff First Names are rendered without HTML encoding (raw output)
You are affected if the installed version is exactly 1.0.118 AND the /rest/staffResource/update endpoint is accessible AND staff First Name data is displayed to users without proper output encoding.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement input validation and output encoding on the First Name field at /rest/staffResource/update to sanitize HTML/script tags before storage and before rendering to users.
