mathjax is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). The vulnerability exists due to inefficient regular expression complexity in the components and markdown patterns, which allows an attacker to slow down the application if they can control the input to the MathJax.Message.Set() or MathJax.Localization._() functions.
