Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability manifests when a malicious display name is rendered unescaped in the admin interface. The GitHub issue explicitly states remediation requires HTML encoding during output, indicating the XSS occurs at rendering time rather than storage. In Laravel
Blade
templates, unescaped output syntax ({!! !!}) would be the primary suspect. While the exact function name
isn't available without code, the view template rendering user data is the clear vulnerable component.
