auditing the generated-html path surfaced that field, method, local-variable, inner-class and type/class-reference names from the constant pool are written into the Class2HTML output as element text without escaping, so a crafted .class whose pool holds a name like <script> yields stored xss in the generated pages; route them through the existing Class2HTML.toHTML that the method-name sinks already use, leaving link anchors and filenames untouched so links keep working.

  • I used AI to create any part of, or all of, this pull request. Which AI tool was used to create this pull request, and to what extent did it contribute?
  • Run a successful build using the default Maven goal with mvn; that's mvn on the command line by itself.
  • Write unit tests that match behavioral changes, where the tests fail if the changes to the runtime are not applied. This may not always be possible, but it is a best practice.
  • Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand what the pull request does, how, and why.
  • Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line and body.
