Summary
Cloudron 9.1.7 and 9.2 are affected. Insufficient sanitization of a stored setting (CWE-79) lets attacker-controlled JavaScript in the Footer setting of the Branding Footer feature run in the Cloudron web origin. An authenticated administrator can store the crafted HTML, and it executes when a user views the public login or OpenID interaction page or the System Event Log.

Description from the CNA
Cloudron 9.1.7 and 9.2 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Branding Footer feature. An authenticated administrator can store crafted HTML containing JavaScript event handlers in the Footer setting. The stored value is rendered without sufficient sanitization on the public login / OpenID interaction page and in the System Event Log, causing attacker-controlled JavaScript to execute in the Cloudron web origin when an affected page is viewed.
