AI-suggested
Upgrade ruby-handlebars-assets to version 4.7.10 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Avoid embedding precompiled templates containing attacker-controlled content directly inside inline script elements. Using server-side rendering or serving precompiled templates as external JavaScript files is not affected by this issue.
Description
A vulnerability in ruby-handlebars-assets affects versions including 4.0.0 through 4.7.9, where the Handlebars.precompile() function improperly escapes sequences that terminate an enclosing HTML script element. This can allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary markup if attacker-controlled template text is precompiled and embedded directly in an inline script element. The issue is fixed in version 4.7.10.
