Fixes https://github.com/OpenFeign/feign/security/code-scanning/12
To fix the cross-site scripting vulnerability, we need to ensure that any user input included in the response is properly sanitized or encoded. In this case, we can use the
HtmlUtils.htmlEscapemethod from theorg.springframework.web.utilpackage to encode the user inputs before concatenating them into the response string. This will prevent any malicious scripts from being executed if the response is rendered in an HTML context.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
