Summary

Harden input handling in app/views/tpl.mjs (flagged by multi_agent_ai).

Vulnerability

Field Value
ID V-003
Severity HIGH
Scanner multi_agent_ai
Rule V-003
File app/views/tpl.mjs:195
Assessment Defensive hardening

Description: User-controlled data from GitHub API responses (res.body, res.title, res.user.login) is rendered directly into the DOM via the x() function. While the x() function appears to use DOM APIs rather than innerHTML, the data flows from external API responses without sanitization.

Threat Model Context

This view handler appears to be publicly accessible. This is a Node.js library - vulnerabilities affect downstream consumers who use this package.

Changes

  • app/views/tpl.mjs

Behavior Preservation

The change is scoped to 1 file on the vulnerable path; it only tightens handling of untrusted input and leaves valid inputs unaffected.


This patch removes an exploit primitive — a code pattern that, while not independently exploitable today, could be chained with other weaknesses by automated exploit-development tooling. Proactive removal of such primitives raises the bar against increasingly capable automated attack tools.
