The issue is related to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting problem. It occurs because the

For versions 1.0.20 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
tab parameter in the affected API endpoint until a patch is available.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploitability
