Even though the application itself escapes special characters (e.g., <>), the underlying library converts these encoded characters into legitimate HTML, thereby possibly causing stored XSS. Attackers can append a XSS payload to a word that has a corresponding glossary entry."

Aunque la aplicaci\u00f3n en s\u00ed misma omite caracteres especiales (por ejemplo, &lt;&gt;), la librer\u00eda subyacente convierte estos caracteres codificados en HTML leg\u00edtimo, lo que posiblemente cause XSS almacenado. Los atacantes pueden agregar un payload XSS a una palabra que tenga una entrada de glosario correspondiente."
