User-controlled inputs are improperly escaped in:




*
VotePage.php (poll option input)



*
ResultPage::getPagesTab() and getErrorsTab() (user-controllable page names)












This allows attackers to inject JavaScript and compromise user sessions under certain conditions.




This issue affects Mediawiki - SecurePoll extension: from 1.39.X before 1.39.13, from 1.42.X before 1.42.7, from 1.43.X before 1.43.2.
