### Impact This issue describes a ReDOS bug found within the figure caption extension (`pymdownx.blocks.caption` ). In systems that take unchecked user content, this could cause long hangs when processing the data if a malicious payload was crafted. ### Patches This issue is patched in Release [10.16.1](https://pypi.org/project/pymdown-extensions/10.16.1/). ### Workarounds Some possible workarounds If users are concerned about this vulnerability and process unknown user content without timeouts or other safeguards in place to prevent really large, malicious content being aimed at systems, the use of `pymdownx.blocks.caption` could be avoided until the library is updated to 10.16.1+. ### References The original issue https://github.com/facelessuser/pymdown-extensions/issues/2716. ### Description The original issue came through PyMdown Extensions' normal issue tracker instead of the typical security flow: https://github.com/facelessuser/pymdown-extensions/issues/2716.

### Summary LibreDesk is vulnerable to **stored HTML injection** in the contact notes feature. When adding notes via `POST /api/v1/contacts/{id}/notes`, the backend automatically wraps user input in `<p>` tags. However, by intercepting the request and removing the `<p>` tag, an attacker can inject arbitrary HTML elements such as forms and images, which are then stored and rendered without proper sanitization. This can lead to phishing, CSRF-style forced actions, and UI redress attacks. --- ### Details When notes are added through the LibreDesk web application, the client sends note content wrapped inside `<p>` tags. The backend appears to **trust this HTML structure** and stores the content as-is. By intercepting the request to: ``` POST /api/v1/contacts/3/notes ``` and **removing the `<p>` wrapper**, an attacker can submit arbitrary HTML content. The backend does not sanitize or validate the HTML payload before persisting it. As a result: * Arbitrary HTML tags (e.g., `<form>`...
