Summary
Bootstrap Multiselect Vulnerable to CSRF and Reflective XSS via Arbitrary POST Data
Details

An issue was discovered in post.php in bootstrap-multiselect (aka Bootstrap Multiselect) 1.1.2. A PHP script in the source code echoes arbitrary POST data. If a developer adopts this structure wholesale in a live application, it could create a Reflective Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable through Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
