Summary
Ghost versions from 0.5.3 through versions prior to 6.50.0 fail to sanitize the data placed in the JSON-LD HTML tag emitted by the {{ghost_head}} helper. An authenticated user with limited privileges can inject unescaped content that is rendered as script in the published page, potentially leading to compromise of a staff user's admin session when that user views the affected page.
Patch / fix
- bitnami ghost 6.50.0

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
The maintainers of TryGhost/Ghost published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
