Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in search.php in PHPKB Knowledge Base allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the searchkeyword parameter. NOTE: the issue was originally disputed by the vendor, but on 20060519, the vendor notified CVE that "We have fixed all the mentioned issues and now the search section of PHPKB script is free from any XSS issues."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old cross-site scripting issue in PHPKB Knowledge Base search. If an exposed vulnerable installation accepts malicious search text and reflects it unsafely, a user’s browser could run attacker-supplied script. The source bundle does not identify affected versions or a specific fixed release. Exposure is likely limited to legacy PHPKB Knowledge Base deployments with public search.php enabled. The sources do not provide version ranges, CPEs, CVSS, or deployment prerequisites. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless PHPKB is internet-facing or business-critical. Priority rises if the product is still public, unsupported, or cannot be confirmed patched. Mitigation focus: Inventory any PHPKB Knowledge Base installations and exposed search.php endpoints.; Check PHPKB vendor guidance or release history for the fixed build.; Upgrade to a vendor-fixed version where still in use..
