CVE-2025-54589: copyparty Reflected XSS via Filter Parameter

The vulnerability is a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the 'filter' parameter of the recent uploads page. The provided patch in commit a8705e611d05eeb22be5d3d7d9ab5c020fe54c62 clearly shows the fix. A new function, json_hesc, was added in copyparty/util.py to escape HTML-sensitive characters. This function is then used in the tx_rups method within the HttpSrv class in copyparty/httpcli.py. The change from html = self.j2s("rups", this=self, v=jtxt) to html = self.j2s("rups", this=self, v=json_hesc(jtxt)) demonstrates that the jtxt variable, containing user-controlled input from the 'filter' parameter, was previously being rendered without escaping. Therefore, the tx_rups function is the vulnerable function, as it was processing the malicious input and including it in the web page.
