Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The XWiki Blog Application (org.xwiki.contrib.blog:application-blog-ui) versions 9.15 up to 9.15.7 is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting through the blog post title, which is inserted into the HTML title tag without escaping. An attacker who can create or edit blog posts can run JavaScript in the browser of any user who views the post, including administrators. Upgrade to version 9.15.7, which adds the missing escaping. No workarounds are known.
