The issue is caused by an illegal character (&) in the description of the Finding column for CheckID = 162. To resolve this issue, update the description to replace & with and, ensuring XML compatibility.

When I run a procedure with the following parameter "exec dbo.sp_Blitz @OutputType = 'Markdown'", I expected to see the output result in Markdown format. However, I received the following error instead:
Msg 9421, Level 16, State 1, Procedure dbo.sp_Blitz, Line 10347 [Batch Start Line 0] XML parsing: line 63, character 37, illegal name character.
