      "value": "phpMyFAQ is an open source FAQ web application. Starting no later than version 3.2.10 and prior to version 4.0.2, an attacker can inject malicious HTML content into the FAQ editor at `http[:]//localhost/admin/index[.]php?action=editentry`, resulting in a complete disruption of the FAQ page's user interface. By injecting malformed HTML elements styled to cover the entire screen, an attacker can render the page unusable. This injection manipulates the page structure by introducing overlapping buttons, images, and iframes, breaking the intended layout and functionality. Exploiting this issue can lead to Denial of Service for legitimate users, damage to the user experience, and potential abuse in phishing or defacement attacks. Version 4.0.2 contains a patch for the vulnerability."

A partir de la versi\u00f3n 3.2.10 y antes de la versi\u00f3n 4.0.2, un atacante puede inyectar contenido HTML malicioso en el editor de preguntas frecuentes en `http[:]//localhost/admin/index[.]php?action=editentry`, lo que provoca una interrupci\u00f3n total de la interfaz de usuario de la p\u00e1gina de preguntas frecuentes. Al inyectar elementos HTML mal formados con un estilo que cubra toda la pantalla, un atacante puede dejar la p\u00e1gina inutilizable. Esta inyecci\u00f3n manipula la estructura de la p\u00e1gina mediante la introducci\u00f3n de botones, im\u00e1genes e iframes superpuestos, lo que rompe el dise\u00f1o y la funcionalidad previstos. La explotaci\u00f3n de este problema puede provocar una denegaci\u00f3n de servicio para usuarios leg\u00edtimos, da\u00f1os a la experiencia del usuario y un posible abuso en ataques de phishing o desfiguraci\u00f3n. La versi\u00f3n 4.0.2 contiene un parche para la vulnerabilidad."
