markdown2 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. The vulnerability is introduced because of using a loosely defined regular expression for _incomplete_tags_re string in the function _encode_amps_and_angles causing a bypass of HTML element if a user passes a malicious string with a new line that does not match to .+. The vulnerability exists due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-5773.
