NukeET is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

The source of this issue is that HTML and script code is not properly sanitized from URI variables before being output in a dynamically generated Web page. However, to successfully trigger the issue, HTML and script code may be Base64-encoded when passed as a URI variable argument.

An attacker may exploit the issue by enticing a user to following a link that includes hostile Base64-encoded HTML and script code. The malicious input will be decoded by the application and may then be rendered in the browser of the user who visits the link.

The following Base64-encoded string is equivalent to <script>alert()</script><h1>XSS PoW@ !!!</h1>:
