Vulnerability
GigToDo 1.3 contains a persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability within the proposal description field. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious JavaScript and HTML code through the create_proposal endpoint. The vulnerability affects GigToDo version 1.3 [1].
