Upgrade kolkov/angular-editor to version 3.0.4 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed by properly sanitizing input in toggleEditorMode(). No other mitigation is required once the update is applied.
Description
CVE-2025-71464 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the kolkov/angular-editor component before version 3.0.4. The flaw occurs in the toggleEditorMode() function, which assigns source view text directly to innerHTML without proper sanitization using Angular's DomSanitizer. This allows attackers to craft HTML containing event handlers (e.g., img onerror) that execute scripts in the application's origin when users toggle between editor views.
