Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in Hero

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to properly sanitize user-supplied input and implement output encoding to prevent the execution of arbitrary script code.
