CVE-2024-22414
No affected components available
flaskBlog is a simple blog app built with Flask. Improper storage and rendering of the /user/<user> page allows a user's comments to execute arbitrary javascript code. The html template user.html contains the following code snippet to render comments made by a user: <div class="content" tag="content">{{comment[2]|safe}}</div>. Use of the "safe" tag causes flask to not escape the rendered content. To remediate this, simply remove the |safe tag from the HTML above. No fix is is available and users are advised to manually edit their installation.
