Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
ammonia versions before 3.3.2, from 4.0.0 before 4.0.2, and from 4.1.0 before 4.1.3 are affected. If an application allows the math and annotation-xml tags but not the encoding attribute, and also allows a raw-text tag such as style, an attacker can inject JavaScript into a user's browser. Upgrade to 3.3.2, 4.0.2, or 4.1.3.
