Description
Versions of htmr prior to 0.8.7 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The package uses innerHTML to unescape HTML entities. This may lead to DOM-based XSS through HTML-encoded XSS payloads. This may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim’s browser.
Recommendation
Update the htmr package to the latest compatible version. Followings are version details:
- Affected version(s): < 0.8.7
- Patched version(s): 0.8.7
