CI4MS is a CodeIgniter 4-based CMS skeleton that delivers a production-ready, modular architecture with RBAC authorization and theme support. Prior to 0.31.4.0, the blacklist (ban) note parameter in UserController::ajax_blackList_post() is stored in the database without sanitization and rendered into an HTML data-note attribute without escaping. An admin with blacklist privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the browser of any other admin who views the user management page. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.31.4.0.

GHSA-7cm9-v848-cfh2 — CI4MS has stored XSS via Unescaped Blacklist Note in Admin User List

Affected: Packagist: ci4-cms-erp/ci4ms

## Summary

The blacklist (ban) note parameter in `UserController::ajax_blackList_post()` is stored in the database without sanitization and rendered into an HTML `data-note` attribute without escaping. An admin with blacklist privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the browser of any other admin who views the user management page.

## Details

In `modules/Users/Controllers/UserController.php`, the `ajax_blackList_post()` method (line 344-362) accepts a `note` POST parameter with only a `required` validation rule:

```php // Line 347 — validation only checks 'required', no sanitization $valData = (['note' => ['label' => lang('Backend.notes'), 'rules' => 'required'], 'uid' => ['label' => 'uid', 'rules' => 'required|is_natural_no_zero']]);

// Line 352 — raw user input passed directly to ban() $user->ban($this->request->getPost('note')); ```

Shield's `Bannable::ban()` trait stores the message as-is: ```php // vendor/codeigniter4/shield/src/Traits/Bannable.php public function ban(?string $message = null): self { $this->status = 'banned'; $this->status_message = $message; // No escaping // ... } ```

In the `users()` method (line 13-91), when building the DataTables response, the `status_message` is concatenated directly into HTML without escaping:

```php // Line 55 — esc() IS used here (correct) $result->fullname = esc($result->firstname) . ' ' . esc($result->surname);

// Line 58-59 — NO esc() on status_message (vulnerabl…
