📝 LLM Analysis
🔸 Vulnerability Description
The use of insertAdjacentHTML with potentially untrusted input can lead to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. This occurs because insertAdjacentHTML directly inserts HTML into the DOM, which can execute any embedded scripts.
🔸 Recommended Fix
Sanitize the HTML content before using insertAdjacentHTML. A library such as DOMPurify can be used to ensure that the HTML is safe to insert into the DOM.
🔸 Additional Notes
The fix involves using DOMPurify to sanitize the HTML content before inserting it into the DOM. This ensures that any potentially harmful scripts are removed, mitigating the risk of XSS attacks. Ensure that DOMPurify is included in your project for this solution to work.
🛠 Fix Summary
All identified vulnerabilities have been remediated following security best practices such as parameterized queries and proper input validation. Please refer to the diff tab for detailed code changes.
