3.10.16, 4.0.x prior to 4.4.6, or 5.0.x prior to 5.1.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  - Inadequate input validation leads to XSS vulnerabilities in the accessiblemedia field. (CVE-2024-21729)

  - The fancyselect list field layout does not correctly escape inputs, leading to a self-XSS vector.
    (CVE-2024-21730)

  - Improper handling of input could lead to an XSS vector in the StringHelper::truncate method.
    (CVE-2024-21731)

  - The wrapper extensions do not correctly validate inputs, leading to XSS vectors. (CVE-2024-26279)

  - The Custom Fields component not correctly filter inputs, leading to a XSS vector. (CVE-2024-26278)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
