Cross-site scripting in sickrage

Description

In SiCKRAGE, versions 9.3.54.dev1 to 10.0.11.dev1 are vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) due to user input not being validated properly in the quicksearch feature. Therefore, an attacker can steal a user's sessionID to masquerade as a victim user, to carry out any actions in the context of the user.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:R)
A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:L)
Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
