Text nodes are routed through the existing escape function which encodes \" as &quot;, but attribute values never visit that path. A markdown link whose URL or title contains a bare \" closes the attribute early and lets the trailing bytes be parsed by the browser as fresh HTML attributes. For example, [click](http://example.com/?a=x\" onerror=\"alert(1)) renders as <a href=\"http://example.com/?a=x\" onerror=\"alert(1)\">click</a>, executing arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser.\n\nThe earmark library is no longer maintained and has been retired on Hex.
