Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Isso versions before 0.13.2 are vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting through the comment website field, which is not properly escaped and can break out of an HTML attribute. An anonymous attacker can post a comment with a crafted website URL, and the script then runs in the browser of any visitor to a page showing that comment, with no interaction beyond moving the mouse. Upgrade to isso 0.13.2 or later. Enabling comment moderation reduces exposure but does not fully prevent the issue.
