Hero is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.
 
Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
 
Hero 3.791 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
