Until a fix is available, users should consider restricting access to the user account creation interface and applying input validation or sanitization on the server side to prevent script injection.
Description
OpenKM Community Edition 6.3.12 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the user account creation interface. The vulnerability allows script tags to be injected via the Name field and through the Email field when the POST request is manipulated to include encoded script tags, bypassing frontend validation.
