### Impact
It's possible for a user without any specific right to perform script injection and remote code execution just by inserting an appropriate title when creating a new Change Request.
This vulnerability is particularly critical as Change Request aims at being created by user without any particular rights.
### Patches
The vulnerability has been fixed in Change Request 1.9.2.
### Workarounds
It's possible to workaround the issue without upgrading by editing the document `ChangeRequest.Code.ChangeRequestSheet` and by performing the same change as in the commit: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-changerequest/commit/7565e720117f73102f5a276239eabfe85e15cff4.
