Discourse vulnerable to incomplete quote causing a topic to crash in the browser

Published Sep 29, 2022 · Updated Apr 23, 2025 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Discourse is an open source discussion platform. Starting with version 2.9.0.beta5 and prior to version 2.9.0.beta10, an incomplete quote can generate a JavaScript error which will crash the current page in the browser in some cases. Version 2.9.0.beta10 added a fix and tests to ensure incomplete quotes won't break the app. As a workaround, the quote can be fixed via the rails console.
