Description
An Otter Wiki before 2.26.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in OtterwikiMdRenderer.block_code that allows attackers who can edit pages, including anonymous users under the default configuration, to inject arbitrary script. Attackers can place HTML inside a math fenced code block, which is rendered unescaped and executes for every viewer of the page.
