## Technical details

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in the updateRows action handler due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of table cell data values. Attackers with subscriber-level access (or higher) can inject arbitrary JavaScript that persists in the database and executes in the browsers of any user accessing the affected page. The vulnerability is only accessible to lower-privileged users when administrators explicitly enable the 'access_roles' feature.
