CVE-2025-59748
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 · uneditedCross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability reflected in AndSoft's e-TMS v25.03. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser by sending them a malicious URL. The relationship between parameter and assigned identifier is 'l' and 'reset' parameters in '/clt/changepassword.asp'.
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 confidenceReflected XSS vulnerability in AndSoft e-TMS v25.03 allows injection of malicious JavaScript through the 'l' and 'reset' parameters in the /clt/changepassword.asp endpoint. Attackers can craft URLs that, when clicked by victims, execute arbitrary JavaScript in their browsers due to improper input sanitization.

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.
-
Confirm AndSoft e-TMS installationLocate the application by checking for the presence of the /clt/ directory path in web server logs or by identifying the e-TMS web application banner. Check web server configuration files for the e-TMS application path.Affected if AndSoft e-TMS is not installed or the /clt/ path does not exist in the web root.
-
Identify e-TMS versionCheck the application's about page, footer, or version information within the web interface. Alternatively, review any version.txt, version.info, or configuration files within the e-TMS web directory that may disclose the software version.Affected if The installed version is exactly 25.03.
-
Verify changepassword.asp endpoint existsAccess the URL path /clt/changepassword.asp in a web browser or using curl to confirm the endpoint is reachable and part of the installed application.Affected if The endpoint returns a 404 error or is not found.
-
Test 'l' parameter for reflected inputNavigate to /clt/changepassword.asp?l=teststring and inspect the HTML response page source to see if 'teststring' appears anywhere in the output without encoding or sanitization.Affected if The input value from the 'l' parameter is reflected verbatim in the HTML response without proper encoding.
-
Test 'reset' parameter for reflected inputNavigate to /clt/changepassword.asp?reset=teststring and inspect the HTML response page source to see if 'teststring' appears anywhere in the output without encoding or sanitization.Affected if The input value from the 'reset' parameter is reflected verbatim in the HTML response without proper encoding.
A user is affected if AndSoft e-TMS version 25.03 is installed and the /clt/changepassword.asp endpoint reflects unsanitized input from the 'l' or 'reset' parameters back into the HTML output.

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 proper input validation and output encoding for all user-supplied parameters in the changepassword.asp page, specifically the 'l' and 'reset' parameters, before reflecting them in HTML output.
