The {html-include} macro allows you to include the content of an HTML file in a Confluence page. This page tells you how to enable the macro, so that it is available on your Confluence site. For help on using the macro, see HTML Include Macro.

Because HTML can contain active scripting components, it would be possible for a malicious attacker to present a user of your site with script that their web browser would believe came from you. Such code could be used, for example, to steal a user's authentication cookie and give the attacker their Confluence login password.
