Summary
Open Source Point of Sale (opensourcepos) is a web based point of sale application written in PHP using CodeIgniter framework. Starting in version 3.4.0 and prior to version 3.4.2, a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the "Return Policy" configuration field. The application does not properly sanitize user input before saving it to the database or displaying it on receipts. An attacker with access to the "Store Configuration" (such as a rogue administrator or an account compromised via the separate CSRF vulnerability) can inject malicious JavaScript payloads into this field. These payloads are executed in the browser of any user (including other administrators and sales staff) whenever they view a receipt or complete a transaction. This can lead to session hijacking, theft of sensitive data, or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of the victim. The vulnerability has been patched in version 3.4.2 by ensuring the output is escaped using the `esc()` function in the receipt template. As a temporary mitigation, administrators should ensure the "Return Policy" field contains only plain text and strictly avoid entering any HTML tags. There is no code-based workaround other than applying the patch.

A partir de la versi\u00f3n 3.4.0 y anterior a la versi\u00f3n 3.4.2, existe una vulnerabilidad de Cross-Site Scripting Almacenado (XSS) en el campo de configuraci\u00f3n \u0027Pol\u00edtica de Devoluci\u00f3n\u0027. La aplicaci\u00f3n no sanitiza correctamente la entrada del usuario antes de guardarla en la base de datos o de mostrarla en los recibos. Un atacante con acceso a la \u0027Configuraci\u00f3n de la Tienda\u0027 (como un administrador malintencionado o una cuenta comprometida a trav\u00e9s de la vulnerabilidad CSRF separada) puede inyectar cargas \u00fatiles de JavaScript maliciosas en este campo. Estas cargas \u00fatiles se ejecutan en el navegador de cualquier usuario (incluyendo otros administradores y personal de ventas) cada vez que ven un recibo o completan una transacci\u00f3n.

La vulnerabilidad ha sido parcheada en la versi\u00f3n 3.4.2 asegurando que la salida se escape usando la funci\u00f3n \u0027esc()\u0027 en la plantilla de recibo. Como mitigaci\u00f3n temporal, los administradores deben asegurarse de que el campo \u0027Pol\u00edtica de Devoluci\u00f3n\u0027 contenga solo texto plano y eviten estrictamente introducir cualquier etiqueta HTML.
