Browser script execution via unsanitized Code View
Published Jun 12, 2024 · Updated Oct 7, 2025
Cross-site scripting in SummerNote 0.9.1 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript through crafted Code View input. Code View inserts attacker-supplied HTML into the editor DOM without sanitization, so event handlers execute when Code View is closed. Exploitation requires a user to process the crafted editor content; successful code runs in that user's browser context and can read or alter accessible page data.
