| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in Mistune, a Python Markdown parser. The mistune math plugin improperly handles user-supplied content, such as inline and block math, by directly embedding it into the HTML output without proper HTML escaping. This vulnerability, which can lead to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), allows a remote attacker to inject malicious scripts into a web page, potentially leading to information disclosure or unauthorized actions when a user interacts with the affected content.
