## Technical details

This is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting Esri Portal for ArcGIS versions 11.5 and prior. The vulnerability allows a remote, privileged attacker to inject malicious JavaScript that persists in the application and executes in victims' browsers when they access the affected content. Stored XSS of this nature typically requires an authenticated attacker with elevated privileges to inject the payload, but once stored, any user accessing that content becomes vulnerable. The attack can result in arbitrary JavaScript execution, session hijacking, or credential harvesting. Users should upgrade to the latest long-term support release; patches are available for Enterprise versions 11.1, 11.3, and 11.5.
