AI-suggested

Upgrade Nokogiri to version 1.19.5 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Alternatively, use the recommended workaround by setting parse_noscript_content_as_text: true to avoid the vulnerable default behavior. No other vendor advisories indicate additional mitigations or that no action is required.

Description

Nokogiri, a Ruby XML and HTML library, has a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its HTML5 serializer for versions from 1.12.0 up to but not including 1.19.5. The issue arises because the serializer does not escape text inside noscript elements or angle brackets inside attribute values by default, allowing browsers to parse unintended markup and enabling mutation XSS. This vulnerability is fixed in version 1.19.5. JRuby is not affected as it does not implement the Nokogiri::HTML5 serializer.
