Sanitized Markdown output was then inserted into the CMS preview DOM as raw HTML. Because no sandboxing or source validation was applied, a Markdown field containing an `iframe` whose src pointed to a same-origin uploaded or publicly accessible HTML asset would render an unsandboxed iframe. JavaScript in the framed document could then access the parent CMS window via the browser’s same-origin policy, allowing it to read and write the parent window’s state, DOM, and browser storage, and to trigger actions in the CMS context.\n\nThe practical impact is limited in currently supported Sveltia CMS usage because the CMS is intended for a single developer or a small trusted team, and [open authoring](https://sveltiacms.app/en/docs/workflows/open) / untrusted multi-user authoring is not currently implemented. Exploitation requires the ability to place malicious content into the repository or content source that the CMS loads.\n\n### Patches\n\nThe issue has been patched by replacing the direct DOMPurify call in the Markdown preview renderer with a two-pass sanitization pipeline:\n\n1. DOMPurify processes the raw HTML as before.\n2. A post-processing step validates every `iframe` element in the sanitized output. Any iframe whose src does not use an `https://` URL, uses a same-origin URL, uses a relative path, or uses any other non-HTTPS scheme (`javascript:`, `data:`, `blob:`, , etc.) is removed from the output. Surviving iframes (HTTPS cross-origin only) have a `sandbox` attribute enforced with at minimum `allow-scripts allow-same-origin`, which confines the framed document to its own origin and prevents it from accessing the parent CMS window.\n\nUsers should upgrade to Sveltia CMS [v0.167.3](https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/releases/tag/v0.167.3) or later.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nIf upgrading is not immediately possible, avoid loading CMS content from untrusted authors and review Markdown field content for `iframe` elements pointing to same-origin or relative paths.\n\nAdministrators can also reduce exposure by limiting repository or content source write access to trusted users only.\n\n### References\n\n- [sveltia/sveltia-cms@`8c46294`](https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/commit/8c46294eadf52a8ac48740ccb5054b99d65cff1b)\n- https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/releases/tag/v0.167.3","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-06-19T21:42:20+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-10T03:50:49.6840052+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@sveltia/cms","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"kind":"introduced","version":"0"},{"kind":"fixed","version":"0.167.3"}]}],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS_V4","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U","score":null,"severity":null},{"system":"Publisher rating","vector":null,"score":null,"severity":"LOW"}],"references":["https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/security/advisories/GHSA-h5jc-78hr-3pc9","https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/commit/8c46294eadf52a8ac48740ccb5054b99d65cff1b","https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms","https://github.com/sveltia/sveltia-cms/releases/tag/v0.167.3"],"sourceUrl":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-h5jc-78hr-3pc9","license":"GitHub Advisory Database · CC-BY-4.0","key":"osv:GHSA-h5jc-78hr-3pc9","identifiers":["GHSA-h5jc-78hr-3pc9"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
