TL;DR

Affected versions are vulnerable to a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the admin URL uniqueness validation logic. User-controlled values were inserted into HTML error messages without proper escaping and marked as safe, allowing low-privileged CMS users to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the admin interface and potentially hijack sessions or perform actions as other administrators.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
