Charles Fol and Théo Gordyjan discovered that SPIP is vulnerable to Cross
Site Scripting (XSS). If a user were tricked into browsing a malicious SVG
file, an attacker could possibly exploit this issue to execute arbitrary
code. This issue was only fixed in Ubuntu 21.10. (CVE-2021-44118,

authenticated editor could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code,
and a remote unauthenticated attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain
sensitive information. (CVE-2022-26846, CVE-2022-26847)
