CVE-2022-2364: SourceCodester Simple Parking Management System category cross site scripting

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in SourceCodester Simple Parking Management System 1.0. This affects an unknown part of the file /ci_spms/admin/category. The manipulation of the argument vehicle_type with the input "><script>alert("XSS")</script> leads to cross site scripting. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2022-2364 is a low-severity cross-site scripting issue in SourceCodester Simple Parking Management System 1.0. An authenticated attacker could place script content through the vehicle type/category function, requiring a victim to view the affected page. Business urgency is limited unless this application is internet-facing or used by staff with sensitive admin sessions.

Executive priority

Treat this as a low-priority remediation item unless the affected system is public-facing, shared with untrusted users, or tied to privileged staff workflows. It should still be fixed because public exploit information exists and XSS can undermine trust in administrative sessions.

Technical view

The CVE describes CWE-79 in /ci_spms/admin/category, involving the vehicle_type argument. CVSS 3.1 is 3.5: network reachable, low complexity, low privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, low integrity impact, and no stated confidentiality or availability impact. The public reference labels it stored XSS, but the CVE record has limited implementation detail.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to deployments of SourceCodester Simple Parking Management System 1.0, especially reachable admin/category pages. No CPEs are listed, so discovery should rely on application inventory, code ownership, URL patterns, and vendor/product confirmation rather than scanner CPE matching alone.

Exploitation context

The CVE says remote initiation is possible and exploit details are publicly disclosed. It is not listed in CISA KEV in the supplied bundle, and no source here confirms active exploitation in the wild. Practical impact depends on whether an authenticated low-privilege user can influence content viewed by another user.

Researcher notes

Evidence supports a low-severity CWE-79 issue with public disclosure, but does not establish active exploitation, a vendor patch, or complete affected-code context. The reference naming suggests stored XSS; validate this directly in the deployed application before escalating severity.

Mitigation direction

  • Confirm whether Simple Parking Management System 1.0 is deployed or exposed.
  • Check SourceCodester or maintainer guidance for an update or official fix.
  • Restrict access to the admin/category function to trusted users only.
  • Validate and encode user-controlled category and vehicle type fields before rendering.
  • Monitor admin pages for unexpected script content or suspicious category changes.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory applications for SourceCodester Simple Parking Management System 1.0.
  • Review routes matching /ci_spms/admin/category or equivalent category management paths.
  • Verify whether vehicle type input is stored and rendered without output encoding.
  • Confirm authentication and role requirements for category management access.
  • Check logs or database records for suspicious vehicle type/category values.
