CVE-2026-88976
MediumCVSS 6.1Summary
A vulnerability in Plate rich-text editor prior to 53.3.11 (and in discontinued 54.0.0-beta builds) affects HTML deserialization APIs that parse supplied HTML strings in the active document. When an application passes untrusted or cross-user HTML, certain HTML attributes can trigger browser behavior before conversion to editor nodes, possibly allowing attacker-controlled script execution in the application's origin when another user loads the deserialized content. Fixed in version 53.3.11.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves the potential execution of malicious scripts in the application context, which could lead to session theft, data leakage, or other XSS attacks.
Recommendation
Upgrade Plate to version 53.3.11 or later, avoid passing untrusted HTML to deserialization APIs, and apply proper input sanitization.
Other vulnerabilities in Plate
See all- CVE-2026-65842High
Plate prior to 53.3.2 has a vulnerability in @platejs/docx-io that fetches remote image URLs while converting attacker-controlled HTML through htmlToDocxBlob in a server-side environment. The converter can make requests to internal network resources and include the fetched image bytes in the generated DOCX, allowing server-side request forgery with response disclosure.
- CVE-2026-55596High
A vulnerability in the Plate rich-text editor (versions 53.0.0 to 53.1.4) allows JavaScript injection via embedded media. An attacker can craft a document that, when opened by a victim, renders an iframe with JavaScript code instead of a safe video source.
Original NVD description (English source)
Plate is a rich-text editor with AI and shadcn/ui. Prior to 53.3.11, and in the discontinued 54.0.0-beta.0 through 54.0.0-beta.1 builds, Plate core HTML deserialization APIs parse supplied HTML strings in the active document. When an application passes untrusted or cross-user HTML to these APIs, certain HTML attributes can trigger browser behavior before the HTML is converted into editor nodes. This can allow attacker-controlled script to execute in the consuming application's origin when another user loads the deserialized content. This issue is fixed in version 53.3.11.
