## What is GHSA-r9vp-fp72-xgf7?

GHSA-r9vp-fp72-xgf7 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in silverstripe/framework, published on 27 May 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

The core template `framework/templates/Includes/GridField_print.ss` uses "Printed by $Member.Name".

If the currently logged in members first name or surname contain XSS, this prints the raw HTML out, because Member->getName() just returns the raw FirstName + Surname as a string, which is injected directly.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
