Machine-written summary

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

Payload (npm package payload) versions before 3.90.0 and from 4.0.0-canary.0 up to but not including 4.0.0-canary.34 are affected. Under certain local upload configurations, an uploaded XML file and stylesheet could execute JavaScript in the Payload origin when a logged-in user opens the file. Upgrade to 3.90.0 or 4.0.0-canary.34 or later; as a workaround, disallow XML and XSL uploads.
