Element is missing end tag with two tags with astericks in both

[ice1000]

Describe the bug

<code>infixl + *</code>
<code>*</code>

will break compilation (vitepress build src) with Element is missing end tag. error, and the reason is that there are two *. Putting the above code in a markdown file in any project should reproduce it, I think, although I haven't tested. Let me know if you can't reproduce.

My config:

 "devDependencies": {
    "@types/markdown-it-footnote": "^3.0.4",
    "@vitejs/plugin-vue-jsx": "^4.1.1",
    "vitepress": "1.5.0",
    "vue": "^3.5.13"
  },

Reproduction

Described above

Expected behavior

You should escape asterisk here if you want to render it as asterisk

In first case it indeed generates invalid HTML.
