      "value": "A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in ElkArte Forum 2.0 Beta 1 allows any registered member to inject persistent JavaScript into the profile fields cust_blurb and cust_locate. The fields are saved without HTML encoding and rendered unescaped in profile views visible to administrators. An attacker can craft a payload that executes in an administrator session, enabling session hijacking or privilege escalation."

      "value": "Una vulnerabilidad de cross-site scripting almacenado en ElkArte Forum 2.0 Beta 1 permite a cualquier miembro registrado inyectar JavaScript persistente en los campos de perfil cust_blurb y cust_locate. Los campos se guardan sin codificación HTML y se renderizan sin escapar en las vistas de perfil visibles para los administradores. Un atacante puede crear una carga útil que se ejecuta en una sesión de administrador, lo que permite el secuestro de sesión o la escalada de privilegios."
