Impact #
Due to insufficient escaping of the input template, it was possible to inject code into templates that are compiled in “compat” mode. Also in “strict” mode because the method that was used in strict-mode had not called the safe-guard methods.
Remediation
Update the Handlebars JS library to the latest version.
