I did a vulnerability analysis on the Veracode Platform and found an XSS vulnerability: This is the code that has the vulnerability, I'm trying fix, but I need your help:

<po-widget>
  <div class="po-row">
    <div class="treeview-container po-md-12">
      <kendo-treeview
        class="po-md-12 po-mt-1 po-mb-1"
        kendoTreeViewDragAndDrop
        kendoTreeViewDragAndDropEditing
        kendoTreeViewExpandable
        [expand by]="'id'"
        [(expandedKeys)]="expandedKeys"
        kendoTreeViewHierarchyBinding
        [childrenCampo]="'children'"
        [(nodes)]="treeviewItems"
        [textField]="'name'"
        kendoTreeViewSelectable
        [(selectedKeys)]="selectedKeys"
        (nodeDrop)="handleDrop($event)"
        (removeItem)="handleRemovedNode()"
        (selectionChange)="handleSelection($event)" // <==== XSS vulnerability here
        [selectBy]="'id'"
        [isSelected]="isItemSelected"
      >

The line (selectionChange)= "handleSelection($event)" is vulnerable by the Platform.

My suggestion to fix the vulnerability is:

(selectionChange)= XSSfix("handleSelection($event)")

 function XSSfix(inputXSS){

        return inputXSS.replace(/\&/g, '&amp;').replace(/\</g, '&lt;').replace(/\>/g, '&gt;');
    }

What do you think? Is this solution correct? It's work to fix vulnerability?
