Prior to version 1.4.4, a possible XSS vulnerability with certain configurations of Rails::Html::Sanitizer may allow an attacker to inject content if the application developer has overridden the sanitizer's allowed tags in either of the following ways: allow both \"math\" and \"style\" elements, or allow both \"svg\" and \"style\" elements. Code is only impacted if allowed tags are being overridden. . This issue is fixed in version 1.4.4. All users overriding the allowed tags to include \"math\" or \"svg\" and \"style\" should either upgrade or use the following workaround immediately: Remove \"style\" from the overridden allowed tags, or remove \"math\" and \"svg\" from the overridden allowed tags." } ], "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-9h9g-93gc-623h", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } }, "adp": [ { "title": "CVE Program Container", "references": [ { "name": "https://github.com/rails/rails-html-sanitizer/security/advisories/GHSA-9h9g-93gc-623h", "tags": [ "x_refsource_CONFIRM", "x_transferred" ], "url": "https://github.com/rails/rails-html-sanitizer/security/advisories/GHSA-9h9g-93gc-623h" }, { "name": "https://hackerone.com/reports/1656627", "tags": [ "x_refsource_MISC", "x_transferred" ], "url": "https://hackerone.com/reports/1656627" }, { "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2023/09/msg00012.html", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] }, { "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2024/09/msg00045.html" } ], "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108", "shortName": "CVE", "dateUpdated": "2025-11-03T21:46:00.596Z" } } ] } }
