Description:
A cross-site scripting issue exists, allowing an attacker with the `capability` setting privilege to store an arbitrary script in the field label. This script may be executed on the web browser of a logged-in user with the same privilege as the attacker's.
Recommendations:
For Advanced Custom Fields versions 6.3.5 and earlier, update to a version later than 6.3.5 to resolve the issue.
