GHSA-59jf-3q9v-rh6g

By-passing Cross-Site Scripting Protection in HTML Sanitizer

Quick fix

GHSA-59jf-3q9v-rh6g — typo3/html-sanitizer: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

composer require typo3/html-sanitizer:^1.5.1

Details

> ### CVSS: `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:F/RL:O/RC:C` (4.4)

### Problem Due to an encoding issue in the serialization layer, malicious markup nested in a `noscript` element was not encoded correctly. `noscript` is disabled in the default configuration, but might have been enabled in custom scenarios. This allows bypassing the cross-site scripting mechanism of [`typo3/html-sanitizer`](https://packagist.org/packages/typo3/html-sanitizer).

### Solution Update to `typo3/html-sanitizer` versions 1.5.1 or 2.1.2 that fix the problem described.

### Credits Thanks to David Klein and Yaniv Nizry who reported this issue, and to TYPO3 security team members Oliver Hader and Benjamin Franzke who fixed the issue.
