This oversight allows users with the Author role and above to exploit the platform by performing Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. As a result, any user viewing the affected gallery, including administrators, may have malicious scripts executed in their browsers, leading to unauthorized actions and data exposure.

Affected Version(s)
