Description
Umbraco is an ASP.NET content management system (CMS). Starting in version 8.0.0 and prior to versions 8.18.10, 10.7.0, and 12.1.0, a user with access to a specific part of the backoffice is able to inject HTML code into a form where it is not intended. Versions 8.18.10, 10.7.0, and 12.1.0 contain a patch for this issue.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for Umbraco.CMS, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update Umbraco.CMS to 8.18.10 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-xxc6-35r7-796w is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
