I can reproduce this in Emacs 28, too, and I'm not sure how to fix it.
You'd think there'd be a way to tell the font-locking mechanism (which I
assume is used here?) to stay away from certain regions of the buffer,
but reading the documentation, I couldn't find anything.

But there surely must be.  Anybody know?
