Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The patch adds @ResponseBody annotations to exception handlers in RestControllerBase. This indicates the vulnerability stemmed from improper response formatting in error handling. Attackers could trigger these exceptions with malicious input during site creation operations, causing the system to return unescaped XML responses. The missing annotations likely allowed raw error data to be interpreted as XML, enabling XML injection attacks. All four exception handlers would appear in runtime profiles when attackers trigger exceptions through crafted site creation requests.
