+	    The search feature of mdBook (introduced in version 0.1.4) was
+	    affected by a cross site scripting vulnerability that allowed an
+	    attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code on an user's browser
+	    by tricking the user into typing a malicious search query, or
+	    tricking the user into clicking a link to the search page with the
+	    malicious search query prefilled.
+
+	    mdBook 0.4.5 fixes the vulnerability by properly escaping the search
+	    query.
