This change fixes a low severity (🟢) Unsafe use of target blank issue reported by Checkmarx.
Issue description
Unsafe Target Blank occurs when developers use the target='_blank' attribute without the rel='noopener' attribute in anchor tags. This can lead to security vulnerabilities such as tabnabbing or reverse tabnabbing, allowing attackers to hijack user sessions or perform phishing attacks.
Fix instructions
Ensure that anchor tags with target='_blank' attribute include the rel='noopener' attribute to prevent potential security vulnerabilities. This prevents the newly opened page from accessing the window.opener property, mitigating the risk of tabnabbing or reverse tabnabbing attacks.
