Winter is a free, open-source content management system (CMS) based on the Laravel PHP framework. Prior to 1.2.13, custom CSS supplied through the Brand Settings Styles field by a backend user with the backend.manage_branding permission is compiled by the LESS parser and rendered without sanitization on every backend page, allowing stored cross-site scripting against backend users. This issue is fixed in version 1.2.13.
