## Technical details

The local management interface fails to properly neutralize user input before rendering it in the Web UI, allowing authenticated attackers to embed arbitrary JavaScript (CWE-79). The vulnerability requires authentication and relies on specific configurations; an attacker with valid credentials can execute scripts in the context of the management interface to exfiltrate session tokens or credentials.
