Technical details

The autocomplete search filter in the paragraphs_entity_embed module does not sufficiently sanitize user-supplied text, allowing injection of malicious scripts into paragraph labels. An attacker with permission to edit paragraph entity labels can inject XSS payloads that execute when other users interact with the autocomplete feature. The vulnerability requires authenticated access to modify paragraph labels, limiting its exposure.
