Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to disclosure of sensitive information, session hijacking, or other malicious actions performed with the privileges of the victim user. There is no indication of impact on availability. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
