HTML attributes inside of single quotes could be have code injected.  For example, the variable \"var\" in\n\n    <a id='ref' title='[% var | html %]'>\n\nwould not be properly escaped. An attacker could insert some limited HTML and JavaScript, for example,\n\n    var = \" ' onclick='while (true) { alert(1) }'\"\n\nNote that arbitrary HTML and JavaScript would be difficult to inject, because angle brackets, ampersands and double-quotes would still be escaped.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.1},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"references":["https://github.com/abw/Template2/issues/327","https://github.com/cpan-authors/Template2/commit/ca539f49f6ffd1c2b7d9ef4f48f6b88292418734.patch","https://metacpan.org/release/TODDR/Template-Toolkit-3.103/changes","http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/05/19/40"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:35:16.954578616+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-5090","score":0.00292,"percentile":0.21804,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
