Summary
QCubed 2.2.0 through 3.1.1 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject scripts through the installation_path parameter. Attackers can craft GET requests to /assets/php/_devtools/installer/step_2.php with malicious installation_path values echoed unescaped, executing JavaScript in victims' browsers.
Risk Assessment
This may lead to execution of malicious code in the user's browser and potential session hijacking.
Recommendation
Update QCubed to a version later than 3.1.1 or remove access to installer scripts.
