CVE-2019-14769

An attacker could potentially craft a specialized label, then have an administrator execute scripting when administering a layout.

MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 0.85%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Backdrop CMS 1.12.x before 1.12.8 and 1.13.x before 1.13.3 doesn't sufficiently filter output when displaying certain block labels created by administrators. An attacker could potentially craft a specialized label, then have an administrator execute scripting when administering a layout. (This issue is mitigated by the attacker needing permission to create custom blocks on the site, which is typically an administrative permission.)
