The final normalization/scrub pass (_scrubTemplateExpressions) uses a NodeIterator and node.normalize() that do not descend into template.content, so expressions that only form after adjacent text nodes merge survive sanitization. This bypasses SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES and can allow a downstream template engine to evaluate attacker-supplied expressions. The string output path is not affected.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-07-23T14:18:04.843+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-24T13:10:00.147+00:00","affected":[],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0 · disclosure@vulncheck.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X","score":5.1,"severity":"MEDIUM"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · disclosure@vulncheck.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.1,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify/security/advisories/GHSA-gvmj-g25r-r7wr","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/dompurify-before-template-expression-injection-via-return-dom"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-65900","license":"NIST NVD usage terms; underlying source attribution retained","enrichment":{"sourceStatus":"Analyzed","weaknesses":["CWE-79"],"productCriteria":["cpe:2.3:a:cure53:dompurify:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"],"sourceDates":{"published":"2026-07-23T14:18:04.843","lastModified":"2026-10-24T13:10:00.147"},"relatedAdvisories":[],"note":"NVD analysis and CPE criteria are source context, not proof that a package or your environment is affected.
