+	  <p>matrix-react-sdk is a react-based SDK for inserting a Matrix chat/VoIP
+	client into a web page.  Prior to version 3.71.0, plain text messages
+	containing HTML tags are rendered as HTML in the search results.
+	To exploit this, an attacker needs to trick a user into searching
+	for a specific message containing an HTML injection payload.  No
+	cross-site scripting attack is possible due to the hardcoded content
+	security policy.  Version 3.71.0 of the SDK patches over the issue.
+	As a workaround, restarting the client will clear the HTML injection.</p>
