"Rust Security Response Working Group reports :

The search feature of mdBook (introduced in version 0.1.4) was
affected by a cross site scripting vulnerability that allowed an
attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code on an user's browser by
tricking the user into typing a malicious search query, or tricking
the user into clicking a link to the search page with the malicious
search query prefilled.

mdBook 0.4.5 fixes the vulnerability by properly escaping the search
query.");
