⚡ A hidden internal function could let an attacker run rogue JavaScript — think of it as a secret ingredient in a recipe that can ruin the entire dish! 🍽️ This vulnerability is like a restaurant kitchen whose chefs follow a recipe but don't bother double-checking ingredients.

An attacker could exploit this flaw to execute malicious JavaScript on affected sites, potentially stealing user data or hijacking sessions. This could lead to absolutely devastating consequences, including a complete compromise of user trust and site integrity.
