Remediation

Vendor Solution

The Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability through the “title” field has been fixed in version 17. However, the vendor has stated that the Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability through images in .svg format will not be fixed because filtering the JavaScript code of .svg files could bring unwanted effects.
