I guess it's a again the same problem we had before with the cite extension.
If I remove the references to https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Predefini%C3%A7%C3%A3o:Carece_de_fontes&action=edit from the first article, it renders fine in preview mode.

Lowering the priority since this task refers to a specific feature misbehaviour.

It’s not only <ref>s: huwiktionary:koszinusztétel produced the same error when a template called a nonexistent Lua module and suppressed the actual error message (I fixed the template, you can reproduce the error by previewing the article with the old version).

Is this issue a duplicate of T94344 ?

It doesn’t seem to be, the issue is quite different. There, the math tag is not replaced with actual content based on its location (within title anchor). Here, it seems to be because of an independent Lua error, also hiding the Lua error message (although it’s already hidden on the above Portuguese pages—which also have Lua errors, not <ref>s—, while it disappeared entirely on the Hungarian one, looks like unfortunately I fixed the error :)). However, this doesn’t mean it’s a different bug, but the issue is not the same.

It doesn't seem to be limited to broken citations, {{Special:WhatlinksHere/{{FULLPAGENAME}}}} also seems enough to reproduce this.

Indeed looks resolved. I don't see the markers in any of the pages linked on this task.

This search still returns results, but this is a separate and much less severe issue, affecting only math in section titles and only in search results (not in actual articles): T242327.

This issue affects math in section titles in the articles themselves, not just in search results - at least in the table of contents. Here is an example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student%27s_t-distribution#In_terms_of_scaling_parameter_%7F'%22%60UNIQ--postMath-00000086-QINU%60%22'%7F_or_%7F'%22%60UNIQ--postMath-00000087-QINU%60%22'%7F

The TOC in this article displays it as 7.1 In terms of scaling parameter '"UNIQ--postMath-00000086-QINU`"' or '"UNIQ--postMath-00000087-QINU"'`

Is this a new problem, or something that existent before? Understanding that would be helpful to trace down the cause of the problem. Thank you.

It seems new to me. I filed another task: T295430.
