Important security update:

Wrapper template HTML injection vulnerability [Reported by ivanq]

In ZeroNet before rev4188 the wrapper template variables was rendered incorrectly.

Result: The opened site was able to gain WebSocket connection with unrestricted ADMIN/NOSANDBOX access, change configuration values and possible RCE on the client's machine.

Fix: Fixed the template rendering code, disallowed WebSocket connections from unknown locations,
restricted open_browser configuration values to avoid possible RCE in case of sandbox escape.
