A vulnerability was found in hibernate-validator version 6.1.2.Final, where the method 'isValid' in the class org.hibernate.validator.internal.constraintvalidators.hv.SafeHtmlValidator can by bypassed by omitting the tag end (less than sign). Browsers typically still render the invalid html which leads to attacks like HTML injection and Cross-Site-Scripting.
