Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2024-25202 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability affecting Phpgurukul User Registration & Login and User Management System version 1.0. The flaw, tracked under CWE-94, permits arbitrary code execution through the application's search bar and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.1 reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, no required privileges, and required user interaction with changed scope.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the issue by supplying a malicious payload in the search bar; successful exploitation allows the attacker to execute arbitrary script in a victim's browser session, resulting in limited impacts to confidentiality and integrity.
The EPSS score for this CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0635 on 2026-03-18 before receding to the current value of 0.0495, indicating a modest increase in observed exploitation interest after public disclosure. Public references consist of proof-of-concept materials and researcher write-ups hosted on GitHub and Medium, with no official vendor advisories or patches referenced.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.
Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.
Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.
Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).
PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.
Controls that restrict unauthorized or malicious code from being introduced via external networks or removable media limit opportunities for an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code.
