Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability manifests in chart/dashboard update endpoints where user-controlled input (titles/metadata) is persisted without adequate sanitization. The patch PR #21822 specifically addresses XSS in dashboard titles, indicating these REST API update methods were missing proper escaping. The CSP hardening in TALISMAN_CONFIG
corroborates that inline script execution was possible through these vectors. While exact line numbers aren't available, the pattern of REST update handlers being XSS vectors aligns with the vulnerability description and patch context.
