The `marked` library is loaded from jsDelivr without a pinned version (`https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked/marked.min.js`). This means the latest version is always fetched. If the npm package is compromised or a breaking/malicious update is published, users of this page would automatically receive the compromised code.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
While this fixes the pinning issue, how are these versions kept up to date? I'm not an experienced web developer, so any input is welcome.

Pin the dependency to a specific version and add a Subresource Integrity (SRI) hash, e.g.:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked@12.0.0/marked.min.js" integrity="sha384-..." crossorigin="anonymous"></script>.Changes
