3.10.17, 4.0.x prior to 4.4.7, or 5.0.x prior to 5.1.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  - Inadequate validation of URLs could result into an invalid check whether an redirect URL is internal or
    not.. (CVE-2024-27184)

  - The pagination class includes arbitrary parameters in links, leading to cache poisoning attack vectors.
    (CVE-2024-27185)

  - The mail template feature lacks an escaping mechanism, causing XSS vectors in multiple extensions.
    (CVE-2024-27186)

  - Improper Access Controls allows backend users to overwrite their username when disallowed.
    (CVE-2024-27187)

  - The stripImages and stripIframes methods didn't properly process inputs, leading to XSS vectors.
    (CVE-2024-40743)

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