The novaksolutions/infusionsoft-php-sdk version v2016-10-31 contains a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the leadscoring.php file. This vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious scripts that can be executed in a victim's browser, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information, session hijacking, or other client-side attacks.
Overview
This vulnerability (CVE-2017-6216) is a reflected XSS issue affecting the Infusionsoft PHP SDK developed by Novak Solutions. The vulnerability exists in the leadscoring.php component, which fails to properly sanitize user input before reflecting it back to users. When exploited, this vulnerability allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the victim's browser session. Since the SDK may be integrated into various applications, this vulnerability could potentially affect all applications using the vulnerable version of the SDK.
