CoCalc is web-based software that enables collaboration in research, teaching, and scientific publishing. In affected versions the markdown parser allows `<script>` tags to be included which execute when published. This issue has been addressed in commit `419862a9c9879c`. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
