Machine-written summary

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

Liferay Layout Implementation (com.liferay.layout.impl) before 6.0.102, and Liferay DXP 7.3 fix pack 1 through update 23 and 7.4 before update 79, contain a stored cross-site scripting flaw in the Page Tree menu. A remote attacker who can inject a crafted payload into a page's "Name" field can run arbitrary script or HTML in users' browsers. Upgrade com.liferay.layout.impl to 6.0.102 or Liferay DXP to 7.4.13.u79.
