Description

Text nodes not in the HTML namespace are incorrectly literally rendered, causing text which should be escaped to not be. This could lead to an XSS attack.
A flaw was found in the Golang HTML package where it is vulnerable to Cross-site scripting caused by the improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially crafted URL to execute a script in a victim's web browser within the security context of the hosting website once the URL is clicked. The flaw allows an attacker to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication credentials.
