CVE-2023-54362
Joomla VirtueMart Shopping-Cart 4.0.12 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts by manipulating the keyword parameter. Attackers can craft malicious URLs containing script payloads in the keyword parameter of the product-variants endpoint to execute arbitrary JavaScript in victim browsers and steal session tokens or credentials.
