      "value": "Kirby is an open-source content management system. In versions prior to 4.9.1 and 5.4.1, Kirby did not securely sanitize the contents of the list field on save, leaving it vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS). Kirby's list field stores its formatted content as HTML, and unlike other field types, its HTML special characters cannot be escaped without losing the formatting. Sanitization was only enforced client-side in the Panel, while the server did not sanitize the content on save. As a result, an attacker could bypass the Panel and send malicious HTML directly to Kirby's API, storing unsanitized markup in the content file. That markup would then be rendered on the site frontend and executed in the browsers of site visitors and logged-in users browsing the site, resulting in persistent XSS. This issue has been fixed in versions 4.9.1 and 5.4.1."

      "value": "Kirby es un sistema de gestión de contenido de código abierto. En versiones anteriores a la 4.9.1 y 5.4.1, Kirby no saneaba de forma segura el contenido del campo de lista al guardar, dejándolo vulnerable a cross-site scripting (XSS). El campo de lista de Kirby almacena su contenido formateado como HTML, y a diferencia de otros tipos de campo, sus caracteres especiales HTML no pueden ser escapados sin perder el formato. El saneamiento solo se aplicaba del lado del cliente en el Panel, mientras que el servidor no saneaba el contenido al guardar. Como resultado, un atacante podría eludir el Panel y enviar HTML malicioso directamente a la API de Kirby, almacenando marcado sin sanear en el archivo de contenido. Ese marcado se renderizaría entonces en el frontend del sitio y se ejecutaría en los navegadores de los visitantes del sitio y de los usuarios con sesión iniciada que navegan por el sitio, lo que resultaría en XSS persistente. Este problema ha sido solucionado en las versiones 4.9.1 y 5.4.1."
