{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41238","details":"DOMPurify is a DOM-only cross-site scripting sanitizer for HTML, MathML, and SVG. Versions 3.0.1 through 3.3.3 are vulnerable to a prototype pollution-based XSS bypass. When an application uses `DOMPurify.sanitize()` with the default configuration (no `CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING` option), a prior prototype pollution gadget can inject permissive `tagNameCheck` and `attributeNameCheck` regex values into `Object.prototype`, causing DOMPurify to allow arbitrary custom elements with arbitrary attributes — including event handlers — through sanitization. Version 3.4.0 fixes the issue.","modified":"2026-08-27T23:06:09.088362345Z","published":"2026-04-23T16:16:26.420Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-41238"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-41238"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"node-dompurify","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-dompurify?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.4.1+dfsg+~2.4.0-1","2.4.1+dfsg+~2.4.0-2","2.4.1+dfsg+~2.4.0-2+deb12u1","3.0.9+dfsg+~3.0.5-1","3.1.6+dfsg+~3.0.5-1","3.1.7+dfsg+~3.0.5-1","3.1.7+dfsg+~3.0.5-2","3.2.5+dfsg-1","3.3.2+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-2","3.4.1+dfsg-1","3.4.12+dfsg-1","3.4.13+dfsg-1","3.4.13+dfsg-2","3.4.2+dfsg-1","3.4.5+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41238.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-dompurify","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-dompurify?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.1.7+dfsg+~3.0.5-2","3.2.5+dfsg-1","3.3.2+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-2","3.4.1+dfsg-1","3.4.12+dfsg-1","3.4.13+dfsg-1","3.4.13+dfsg-2","3.4.2+dfsg-1","3.4.5+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41238.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-dompurify","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/node-dompurify?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.4.1+dfsg-1"}]}],"versions":["3.1.7+dfsg+~3.0.5-2","3.2.5+dfsg-1","3.3.2+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-1","3.3.3+dfsg-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-41238.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N"}]}
