## Technical details

Akinsoft OctoCloud versions s1.09.01 through v1.11.01 are vulnerable to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) flaw categorized under CWE-79. The vulnerability stems from the application's failure to properly sanitize user-supplied input before rendering it in the web interface. An attacker with high privileges (PR:H) can exploit this by injecting malicious scripts that execute in the context of another user's browser session when they view the affected page. While the attack requires network access and some user interaction, it can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive session tokens or the manipulation of page content. The issue is addressed in version v1.11.01.
