🎯 What: Fixed an XSS vulnerability in
⚠️ Risk: Potential Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks if an attacker can manipulate GitHub user account data (
app.jsline ~1172 where dynamic account data was being injected directly into the DOM viainnerHTML.loginoravatar_url), executing arbitrary code within the application context.🛡️ Solution: Replaced the unsafe
innerHTMLimplementation with safe DOM creation methods (document.createElement). Usedspan.textContentfor the account login name and safely setimg.srcfor the avatar URL, effectively neutralizing the XSS vector by treating dynamic input as raw text and properties rather than HTML markup.PR created automatically by Jules for task 15440931322762693357 started by @megawron
