Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability description explicitly identifies AntiSamy.scan() as the vulnerable component for both SAX and DOM implementations. While the CVE was later withdrawn as a false positive, the original advisory and GitHub GHSA documentation directly implicate this method as the attack surface. No other functions are mentioned in the provided vulnerability context, and the scan() method is inherently security-critical as it performs the input sanitization.
