Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Haml versions before 5.0.0 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting. The single quote character was not escaped in some user input, so an attacker who can supply input that is rendered can add attributes and potentially run script in a victim's browser. Upgrade the haml package to version 5.0.0 or later.
