Description
A vulnerability was identified in Tecnick TCExam 16.5.0. This impacts an unknown function of the file /admin/code/tce_edit_group.php of the component Group Handler. Such manipulation of the argument Name leads to cross site scripting. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The presence of this vulnerability remains uncertain at this time. The affected component should be upgraded. The vendor explained: "I was not able to reproduce the same exploit as the TCExam version was already advanced in the meanwhile." Therefore, it can be assumed that this issue got fixed in a later release.
