Comment (by jonoaldersonwp):
Note that this 'vulnerability' is responsible for large-scale SEO
flavoured XSS attacks. Attackers can populate psuedo-links, as well as
branding or political messaging, and have those persist across multiple
paginated states. Those URLs might be crawled, shared, or exposed by other
systems.
