Withdrawn: Octocat.js vulnerable to code injection

Withdrawn

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a test.

Original Description

Impact

Users can include their own images for accessories via provided URLs. These URLs are not validated and can result in execution of injected code.

Patches

This vulnerability was fixed in version 1.2 of octocat.js

Workarounds

Directly exposing rendered images to a website can introduce the vulnerability to users. To avoid, writing an image to disk then using that image in an image element in HTML mitigates the risk.
