"details" : "### Impact\n\nThis vulnerability allows an attacker to inject arbitrary HTML/JavaScript code through the media download URL in Sulu CMS. It affects the SuluMediaBundle component. The vulnerability is a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue, which could potentially allow attackers to steal sensitive information, manipulate the website's content, or perform actions on behalf of the victim.\n\n### Patches\n\nThe problem has not been patched yet. Users should upgrade to patched versions once they become available. Currently affected versions are:\n\n* 2.6.4\n* 2.5.20\n\n### Workarounds\n\nUntil an official patch is released, users can implement additional input validation and output encoding for the 'slug' parameter in the MediaStreamController's downloadAction method. Alternatively, configuring a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter potentially malicious input could serve as a temporary mitigation.\n\n### References\n\n* GitHub repository: https://github.com/sulu/sulu\n* Vulnerable code: https://github.com/sulu/sulu/blob/2.6/src/Sulu/Bundle/MediaBundle/Controller/MediaStreamController.php#L106\n",
