Root Cause Analysis
While no specific code is available, the pattern suggests controller methods handling CRUD operations for posts/tags/users are vulnerable. XSS occurs when: 1) User input from title/content fields is stored without proper sanitization 2) Stored data is rendered in views without output encoding. The confidence is medium due to lack of direct code evidence, but aligns with standard MVC vulnerability patterns in PHP applications and the advisory's described attack vectors.
