Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability occurs in HTML generation of plugin download pages where required core versions from plugin metadata are rendered unsanitized. The primary vulnerable function would be the HTML rendering method handling plugin data injection (HtmlOutputFormatter.writePluginRow), as this is where XSS would occur during output generation. Plugin.addVersion is included with lower confidence as it processes raw input but doesn't directly cause XSS. Analysis based on advisory details about unsanitized rendering and the security fix commit focusing on output filtering.
