Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in TextPattern

TextPattern is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to implement proper input validation and sanitization techniques to ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized before being displayed or used in the application.
