Description

Summary

Multiple system messages are inserted into the CommandPaletteFooter as raw HTML, allowing anybody who can edit those messages to insert arbitrary HTML into the DOM.

Details

The messages are retrieved using the plain() output mode: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/072e4365e9084e4b153eac62d3666566c06f5a49/resources/skins.citizen.commandPalette/components/CommandPaletteFooter.vue#L61-L66 currentTip is set to one of these messages: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/072e4365e9084e4b153eac62d3666566c06f5a49/resources/skins.citizen.commandPalette/components/CommandPaletteFooter.vue#L69 currentTip is inserted as raw HTML (vue/no-v-html should not be ignored here): https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/072e4365e9084e4b153eac62d3666566c06f5a49/resources/skins.citizen.commandPalette/components/CommandPaletteFooter.vue#L3-L4

PoC
