Description

Passing untrusted user input directly to PhantomJS page methods (like open, setContent, or evaluateJavaScript) can allow attackers to control what the server accesses or executes. Without proper validation or sanitization, this creates a security risk.

Impact

If exploited, attackers could make your server request internal or external resources, potentially exposing sensitive data, accessing restricted services, or enabling further attacks such as internal network scanning or unauthorized actions on behalf of the server.
