5.3 (Medium) - CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N

Summary

Bleach vulnerable to mutation XSS via whitelisted math or svg and raw tag

Details

Impact

A mutation XSS affects users calling bleach.clean with all of:

the svg or math in the allowed/whitelisted tags
an RCDATA tag (see below) in the allowed/whitelisted tags
the keyword argument strip=False

Patches

Users are encouraged to upgrade to bleach v3.1.2 or greater.

Workarounds

modify bleach.clean calls to use strip=True, or not whitelist math or svg tags and one or more of the following tags:

script noscript style noframes xmp noembed iframe

A strong Content-Security-Policy without unsafe-inline and unsafe-eval script-srcs) will also help mitigate the risk.
