Fixed in commit 8dd6fdd

Severity: Medium

What was wrong:
History HTML was put into an XML description attribute via htmlspecialchars(), but Joomla's note field renders description as HTML, causing double-escaping (visible HTML tags instead of rendered HTML).

Fix applied:
Load note field with empty description first, then inject history HTML via $form->setFieldAttribute() which bypasses XML attribute encoding.
