My site is failing a PCI compliance test
This is what they said was the problem
Here is the request I used to execute this
curl 'http://hazmatuniversity.com/store/index.php?function=add_kom&no="><script>alert(123)</script>' >> kate5.html
The characters are not getting sanitized.
The specific plugins are flagging because we are getting our request back unsanitized on those specific checks. So even if you are not using those programs you still would need to correct the core issue of those characters not getting sanitized. If you ensure all special characters on user supplied info are sanitized, these should clear up with a new scan.
This is from SecurityMetrics. If this is fixed in 1.5.5f, please let me know. If not, can you provide a quick patch, or tell me where to make the change, so I can pass the test.
Thanks
