Summary
Failing to properly encode user input, login status display is vulnerable to cross-site scripting in the website frontend. A valid user account is needed in order to exploit this vulnerability - either a backend user or a frontend user having the possibility to modify their user profile. Template patterns that are affected are - ###FEUSER_[fieldName]### using system extension felogin - <!--###USERNAME###--> for regular frontend rendering (pattern can be defined individually using TypoScript setting config.USERNAME_substToken)
