Machine-written summary

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

Opencast's Paella Player 7 in the opencast-common Maven package, versions up to and including 16.10, renders user-supplied metadata such as title and description without filtering. An attacker with write access to the system, for example one who can upload media and edit its metadata, can inject HTML and JavaScript that runs in the browsers of viewers. No fixed version is listed for this package; the source says the fixes in Opencast 17.8 and 18.2 are not published to Maven.
