Technical details

The vulnerability is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw in table cell content handling due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Attackers with Contributor-level or higher privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript that persists in the database and executes in the browsers of all users viewing the affected pages. No special preconditions beyond authenticated access are required; the injected code runs automatically on page load.
