How to Fix GHSA-j7wp-vjj6-cp5m

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected @progress/kendo angular editor dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

@progress/kendo-angular-editor fixed: 1.2.3 
npm install @progress/kendo-angular-editor@1.2.3
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls @progress/kendo-angular-editor

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by GHSA-j7wp-vjj6-cp5m, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @progress/kendo-angular-editor

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @progress/kendo angular editor in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.2.3), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls @progress/kendo-angular-editor command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. In @progress/kendo angular editor, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Kendo UI for Angular Editor Component (npm package @progress/kendo-angular-editor) before version 1.2.3 is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting. When the Editor content contains potentially malicious scripts in element event handlers, they get executed. Adding the following content to the Editor value demonstrates the issue: `<img src="" onerror=alert(document.domain)>`.
