Technical details
The vulnerability is a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw caused by insufficient validation of Markdown links within the AI module's input processing. An attacker can exploit this by crafting specially formatted Markdown containing malicious JavaScript that bypasses the module's XSS sanitization. The module provides this sanitization as a service to consumers, so exploitation could affect multiple dependent modules.
