Description Andrej Nemec 2017-11-23 11:33:07 UTC 
Autocompletion suggestions for text fields were not escaped, resulting in a persisted cross-site scripting vulnerability if the source for the suggestions allowed specifying text that includes HTML metacharacters like less-than and greater-than characters.

Known previously unsafe sources for these suggestions include the names of loggers in the log recorder condition, and agent labels.
