Potential Impact

Successful exploitation could allow an attacker with high privileges and requiring user interaction to execute stored malicious scripts in the context of the Webstix Admin Dashboard RSS Feed. This may lead to partial loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system. However, the impact is limited by the requirement for high privileges and user interaction.
