Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

DSpace server webapp versions 7.0 through 7.6.1 (Maven org.dspace:dspace-server-webapp) are vulnerable to cross-site scripting when HTML, XML or JavaScript bitstreams are downloaded and the browser runs embedded scripts. An attacker needs Submitter privileges to upload the file, and the script runs when a visitor or logged-in user downloads it or follows a shared link. Upgrade to 7.6.2 or 8.0; on 7.6 or 7.6.1, setting webui.content_disposition_format in dspace.cfg blocks the attack.
