bug: fix template use of structure with untrusted data Looks like an xSS bug with an early version of the template that was fixed in the code but never in the deployed tracker. It has been a while since this particular construct has been in the classic template which is the base for the tracker. This has been fixed on the deployed tracker as well. reported by 4bug of ChaMd5 Security Team H1 Group

"""
In Python 3, sometimes TAL "python:" expressions that refer to
variables but not all variables are recognized. That is in Python 2.7
all variables used in a TAL "python:" expression are recognized as
references. In Python 3.5 (perhaps earlier), some TAL "python:"
expressions refer to variables but the reference generates an error
like this:

<class 'NameError'>: name 'some_tal_variable' is not defined

even when the variable is defined. Output after this message lists the
variable and its value.
