## Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-72qq-p3r5-f7wq. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

## Original Description
The openUrl function in @a2ui/web_core passes an agent-controlled URL directly to window.open() without validating the URI scheme. A malicious agent can supply a javascript: URI as the url argument of a Button component's functionCall action. When the user clicks the rendered button, arbitrary JavaScript executes in the victim application's browser origin, constituting a stored/reflected XSS with Critical severity. No non-default configuration is required; the Basic Catalog is enabled by default.

Vendors: [npm](https://junglewise.ai/threats/vendors/npm).
