Hi all,

We are planning an out-of-schedule security release to address CVE-2025-2361¹.

This is an XSS vulnerability in hg-web, and the original bug was introduced way back in 2006!

This was disclosed without our involvement and showed some gaps in our security handling practices that thankfully don't need to be put to the test very often. Nevertheless, I hope that measures like refreshing our security list should improve the situation in the future.

The release for 6.9.4 will only contain the fix for this and will happen tomorrow. I expect this patch to be very easy to graft on top of old versions, as most of the hgweb code doesn't move much these days.

Thanks,
Raphaël
