Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability manifests in the tag selection interface where user-controlled tag labels were rendered without proper sanitization. The vendor's patch notes specifically mention adding sanitization to the Select2
widget template used for tag selection. This indicates the rendering function for tag widgets was vulnerable due to missing output encoding. While exact code isn't available, the pattern matches common Django
widget vulnerabilities where user-supplied data is directly interpolated into HTML templates without escaping.
