FAUCET Score

CVE-2017-6905 describes a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in concrete5 versions up to and including 5.6.3.4. This medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.1) allows an unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary HTML and script code into a user's browser by manipulating the "disable_choose" parameter in the "concrete5-legacy-master/web/concrete/tools/files/search_dialog.php" URL. While the vulnerability requires user interaction, successful exploitation could lead to information disclosure or session hijacking. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
