AcyChecker public input permits cross-site scripting
AcyChecker through 1.8.1 accepts attacker-controlled input through an unauthenticated request path and places it into a browser-executable output context without adequate neutralization. A victim who opens the crafted output can run script in the site's origin. The Patchstack CNA record does not disclose whether the payload is reflected or stored, or identify the endpoint, action, parameter or rendering function.
