🚨 Severity: HIGH
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: The Markdown rendering logic in site/app.js passed unsanitized output from marked.parse() directly into innerHTML.
🎯 Impact: Allowed execution of arbitrary JavaScript if a user crafted malicious markdown, leading to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
πŸ”§ Fix: Implemented conditional DOMPurify sanitization. The application now sanitizes the markdown string before DOM insertion. If DOMPurify is unavailable, the fallback now safely escapes the raw markup instead of "failing open".
βœ… Verification: Ran syntax checks on site/app.js, verified local tests cargo test and pnpm test, and validated code against repository security bounds.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 9096514022059591812 started by @khangnghiem

Sanitizes rendered markdown output using DOMPurify when available,
and fails closed to safely escaped plaintext when unavailable,
preventing raw unsanitized HTML from being injected into innerHTML.
