Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in PHP Handicapper allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the msg parameter to msg.php. NOTE: some sources identify a second vector in the login parameter to process_signup.php, but the original source says that it is for CRLF injection (CVE-2005-4712). Also note: the vendor has disputed CVE-2005-3497, and it is possible that the dispute was intended to include this issue as well. If so, followup investigation strongly suggests that the original report is correct.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

1.97% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 80% of all scored CVEs.
