LiveHelperChat XSS Vulnerability: When Surnames Attack!

LiveHelperChat 4.61 has a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that lets attackers insert malicious JavaScript via the Operator Surname field. This sneaky move is then executed when an admin checks the Recipients List, leading to a surprise party no one wanted.
