| Description | Astro is a web framework for content-driven websites. Prior to 7.4.5, Astro rendered a string used as a dynamic element name as raw HTML after applying an incomplete character filter. A / in the string could make an HTML parser treat the remainder as attributes, allowing untrusted element-name input to inject event-handler markup. The .astro dynamic-tag renderer, JSX renderer, and MDX renderer were affected, and exploitation required an application to use request-controlled or stored untrusted data as all or part of an element name. This issue is fixed in version 7.4.5. |
