    Issue
    Impact This is a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the website and author comment fields. The website field was HTML-escaped using quote=False, which left single and double quotes unescaped. Since the frontend inserts the website value directly into a single-quoted href attribute via string concatenation, a single quote in the URL breaks out of the attribute context, allowing injection of arbitrary event handlers (e.g. onmouseover, onclick). The same escaping was missing entirely from the user-facing comment edit endpoint (PUT /id/<id) and the moderation edit endpoint (POST /id/<id/edit/<key). Any visitor to a page embedding isso comments is impacted. No authentication or interaction beyond mouse movement is required to trigger a payload — an attacker can post a comment anonymously (moderation is off by default) with a crafted website URL, and the payload persists in the database and fires on every page load. With the full-page invisible overlay technique…

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.13.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
