CVE-2022-35493: A Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in json search parse and the json response in wrteam.in, eShop -...
A Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in json search parse and the json response in wrteam.in, eShop - Multipurpose Ecommerce Store Website version 3.0.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the get_products?search parameter.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This vulnerability can let an attacker place script content into eShop search results, affecting users who interact with the crafted search response. It is not described as server takeover, but it can support session abuse, phishing, or content tampering in a customer-facing store.
Executive priority
Prioritize remediation for internet-facing stores because the flaw can affect customers and brand trust. It is medium severity, requires user interaction, and has no KEV evidence of active exploitation in the supplied sources.
Technical view
CVE-2022-35493 is a CWE-79 reflected XSS issue in wrteam.in eShop Multipurpose Ecommerce Store Website 3.0.4. The source describes injection through the get_products?search parameter during JSON search parsing and JSON response handling. CVSS 3.1 is 6.1, network-accessible, low complexity, no privileges, user interaction required, scope changed.
Likely exposure
Exposure is likely limited to sites running eShop Multipurpose Ecommerce Store Website version 3.0.4 with the affected product search endpoint reachable. The CVE record lacks CPEs and structured vendor/product metadata, so inventory confirmation is required.
Exploitation context
The bundle includes a public GitHub reference for this XSS issue, but CISA KEV is false and no cited source states active exploitation. Treat it as publicly disclosed and potentially reproducible, not as confirmed exploited in the wild.
Researcher notes
Evidence is narrow: the CVE description names the endpoint and parameter, but structured affected-product data is missing. No official patch information is present in the bundle. Do not assume other eShop versions are affected without vendor confirmation.
Mitigation direction
Identify any deployed eShop Multipurpose Ecommerce Store Website 3.0.4 instances.
Check WRTeam or product-maintainer guidance for fixed versions or official workarounds.
Apply confirmed vendor updates or mitigations when available.
Review custom code for safe JSON output encoding around search responses.
Consider temporary endpoint restrictions if exposure is public and remediation is delayed.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether get_products?search is reachable on public storefronts.
Verify the deployed eShop version against 3.0.4.
Review application code for unencoded search data in JSON responses.
Check access logs for unusual or script-like search parameter content.
Retest in a controlled environment using safe non-executing markers only.

Client-side and session-facing weaknesses should be reviewed alongside initial-access and user-execution behaviors. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
