Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Kohana versions prior to 3.3.6

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue exists in the Security component, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by bypassing the strip image tags protection mechanism in system/classes/Kohana/Security.php. This could potentially affect a significant number of devices, although the exact number is not specified.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.3.6, update to version 3.3.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the strip image tags function in system/classes/Kohana/Security.php until a patch is available. Restrict access to the Security component to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the system/classes/Kohana/Security.php file in sensitive operations until the issue is resolved.
