## Affected

- unclecode crawl4ai: fixed in 0.9.3

## Description

crawl4ai before 0.9.3 contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Docker Playground UI that assigns untrusted crawl results to element.innerHTML. Attackers can craft malicious PDFs with event-handler markup to execute JavaScript in the Playground origin and steal API tokens from sessionStorage for authenticated API abuse.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on unclecode crawl4ai, upgrade to a fixed version (0.9.3) per the references below.
