AI-suggested

Upgrade Jodit Editor to version 4.13.6 or later, where the vulnerability has been fixed. No other mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor advisory. Patch status is not explicitly stated but the fix is available in 4.13.6.

Description

Jodit Editor is a WYSIWYG editor with a built-in file browser & image editor. Prior to 4.13.6, Jodit's clean-html denyTags filter does not normalize foreign SVG or MathML script node names, allowing a script element nested directly in SVG or MathML to remain in editor.value and execute when content is loaded. This issue is fixed in version 4.13.6.
