Summary
XSS in Bleach when noscript and raw tag whitelisted
Details

Impact

A mutation XSS affects users calling bleach.clean with noscript and a raw tag (see below) in the allowed/whitelisted tags option.

Patches

v3.1.1

Workarounds

  • modify bleach.clean calls to not whitelist noscript and one or more of the following raw tags:

    title
    textarea
    script
    style
    noembed
    noframes
    iframe
    xmp
    
  • A strong Content-Security-Policy without unsafe-inline and unsafe-eval script-srcs) will also help mitigate the risk.
