Summary
Discourse welcome banner user name XSS
Details

Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Welcome banner user name string for logged in users can be vulnerable to XSS attacks, which affect the user themselves or an admin impersonating them. Admins can temporarily alter the welcomebanner.header.loggedinmembers site text to remove the preferreddisplay_name placeholder, or not impersonate any users for the time being. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.5.0.beta8.
