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
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Kleor Contact Manager contact-manager allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects Contact Manager: from n/a through <= 9.1.

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 · high confidence

Reflected XSS vulnerability in Kleor Contact Manager (version <= 9.1) allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript via unsanitized user input that gets reflected in web pages without proper output encoding.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Kleor Contact Manager; alternatively, implement proper input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied parameters.

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. Locate Kleor Contact Manager installation
    Search for files or directories named 'kleor', 'contact-manager', or check web server document roots for this application
    Affected if Kleor Contact Manager is present on the system
  2. Identify installed version
    Check version.php, version.txt, or the admin interface for the Kleor Contact Manager version number
    Affected if Version number cannot be determined or is <= 9.1
  3. Compare version against affected range
    Compare your installed version to the affected range (version <= 9.1 is vulnerable)
    Affected if Installed version is 9.1 or lower
  4. Identify user input reflection points
    Review web forms and URL parameters in Kleor Contact Manager that accept user input and display it back (search fields, contact forms, query parameters)
    Affected if User-supplied input is reflected in pages without visible encoding/sanitization
  5. Verify output encoding presence
    Inspect page source or application code to confirm whether user input is output-encoded before rendering in HTML
    Affected if User input appears raw/unescaped in HTML output (e.g., <script> tags execute or special characters display without entity encoding)

A user is affected if Kleor Contact Manager version 9.1 or lower is installed and the application reflects user input without proper HTML encoding.
