"value": "eLabFTW es un cuaderno de laboratorio electrónico de código abierto para laboratorios de investigación. La aplicación servía los archivos SVG subidos en línea. Dado que SVG admite contenido activo, un atacante podría subir un SVG manipulado que ejecuta un script al ser visualizado, lo que resultaría en XSS almacenado bajo el origen de la aplicación. Una víctima que abre la URL del SVG o cualquier página que lo incruste podría ver su sesión secuestrada, datos exfiltrados o acciones realizadas en su nombre. Esta vulnerabilidad está corregida en la versión 5.3.0."
