Product:imdbphp
Download: https://github.com/tboothman/imdbphp
Vunlerable Version: v5.1.1 and probably prior
Tested Version: v5.1.1
Author: ADLab of Venustech

Advisory Details:
I have discovered a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in “imdbphp”, which can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient filtration of user-supplied data in the “name” HTTP GET parameter passed to the “imdbphp-master/demo/search.php” URL. An attacker could execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a browser in the context of the vulnerable website.
The exploitation example below uses the "alert()" JavaScript function to see a pop-up messagebox:
Poc:
http://localhost/github1/.../imdbphp-master/demo/search.php?name=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert(1);%3C/script%3E%3C%22

That file are not part of the library, just included in the demo. Sure, it's not good to have XSS vulnerabilities in demo files either. The whole /demo/ need a update, there are some PHP error too.

Haven't had the time to make a push for this.
