If you have explicitly allowed the <style>
tag, an attacker could craft HTML that includes script after passing through the sanitizer. The default settings disallow the <style>
tag so there is no risk if you have not explicitly allowed the <style>
tag.
The problem has been fixed in version 5.0.372.
Remove the <style>
tag from the set of allowed tags.
