**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
NodeBB version 3.11.0
**Description**
A persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to store arbitrary code in the 'about me' section of their profile. This enables attackers to execute malicious scripts on the website.
**Recommendations**
For NodeBB version 3.11.0, as a temporary workaround, consider disabling the 'about me' section of user profiles until a patch is available. Restrict access to this section to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the `about me` section in user profiles until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
