Summary
Defuddle, an HTML page cleaner, prior to version 0.19.1, contains a vulnerability in site extractors that interpolate page-derived values (such as image alt and src, og:image, video descriptions) into HTML strings without context-appropriate escaping, and buildExtractorResponse() returns this contentHtml without DOM-based sanitization. A malicious page or attacker-controlled content can inject event-handler attributes or javascript URLs that execute when the extracted HTML is rendered. This issue is fixed in version 0.19.1.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can inject malicious JavaScript that executes in the victim's browser or in an application rendering the extracted HTML, potentially leading to data theft or session hijacking.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade Defuddle to version 0.19.1 or later and apply proper escaping and sanitization of page-derived data.

- CVE-2026-120338Critical
The Generative UI sandbox in prefab-ui runs caller-supplied Python inside Pyodide (WebAssembly) in a Deno subprocess, but from 0.14.0 through 0.20.2 Deno starts with unrestricted --allow-read, --allow-write, and --allow-net, and the Deno API remains on the JavaScript global object. This lets Python call Deno.readTextFileSync and Deno.writeTextFileSync, enabling file read/write as the server OS user and persistent code execution via a .pth file in site-packages.

Original NVD description (English source)
Defuddle cleans up HTML pages. Prior to 0.19.1, site extractors interpolate page-derived image alt and src values, og:image values, and video descriptions into HTML strings without context-appropriate escaping, and buildExtractorResponse() returns this contentHtml without the main pipeline's DOM-based sanitization. The affected paths include src/extractors/x-article.ts, src/extractors/substack.ts, and src/extractors/youtube.ts. A malicious page or attacker-controlled content on a matching domain can inject event-handler attributes or javascript URLs that execute when a victim or downstream application renders the extracted HTML. This issue is fixed in version 0.19.1.
