To fix the issue, the user-provided value from urlParams.get("query") must be sanitized or encoded before being assigned to innerHTML. The best approach is to use a contextual output encoding function, such as encodeHTML, to ensure that any potentially malicious characters are escaped. This prevents the execution of scripts embedded in the query parameter.

Steps to fix:

1. Apply the encodeHTML function to sanitize the urlParams.get("query") value before assigning it to innerHTML on line 45.
2. Ensure that the encodeHTML function is defined and properly escapes HTML special characters.

To fix the issue, we need to ensure that any user-controlled input is properly sanitized or encoded before being inserted into the DOM. The best approach here is to use the encodeHTML function (already defined in the code) to escape special characters in the page parameter and any other user-controlled data before concatenating it into pagerLinks. This will prevent malicious scripts from being executed.

Specifically:

1. Use encodeHTML to sanitize the page parameter and any other user-controlled values before they are added to pagerLinks.
2. Replace all instances where page or other user-controlled data is directly concatenated into HTML strings with their sanitized versions.

To fix the issue, the user-provided input (urlParams.get("query")) must be sanitized or encoded before being inserted into the DOM. The best approach is to use a function that performs contextual output encoding to ensure that any special characters in the input are properly escaped. This prevents malicious scripts from being executed.

The fix involves:

1. Introducing a utility function, encodeHTML, to encode special characters in the input.
2. Replacing the direct use of urlParams.get("query") in innerHTML with the encoded version of the input.

Changes are required in the file search/index.html:

• Add the encodeHTML function.
• Update line 48 to use encodeHTML(urlParams.get("query")).

To fix the issue, we need to sanitize or encode any user-controlled input before inserting it into the DOM. Specifically:

1. Use the encodeHTML function to sanitize the page variable and any other user-controlled data before appending it to pagerLinks.
2. Ensure that all dynamic content added to pagerLinks is properly encoded to prevent XSS.

The changes will involve:

• Applying encodeHTML to the page variable and other user-controlled data in the update_pager function.
• Ensuring that all HTML content constructed in pagerLinks is safe.
