What is GHSA-5gmf-3c43-q73v?
GHSA-5gmf-3c43-q73v is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in zendframework/zendframework, published on 7 Jun 2024. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Official description
Zend\Debug, Zend\Feed\PubSubHubbub, Zend\Log\Formatter\Xml, Zend\Tag\Cloud\Decorator, Zend\Uri, Zend\View\Helper\HeadStyle, Zend\View\Helper\Navigation\Sitemap, and Zend\View\Helper\Placeholder\Container\AbstractStandalone were not using Zend\Escaper when escaping HTML, HTML attributes, and/or URLs. While most were performing some escaping, because they were not using context-appropriate escaping mechanisms, they could potentially be exploited to perform Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.Which versions are affected by GHSA-5gmf-3c43-q73v?
