Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The syncope-client-idrepo-common-ui and syncope-client-idrepo-console packages, versions 2.1.0 up to 3.0.8, let HTML tags be added to text fields when editing users, groups or other objects in the Syncope Console. The same issue was found in the Syncope Enduser. The source gives few details on what an attacker needs or what the resulting exploits allow. Upgrade to version 3.0.8, which fixes this issue.
