GHSA-q6xv-jm4v-349h Cross-site Scripting in ZenUML

• npm @zenuml/core: < 3.23.25 → fixed in 3.23.25

Summary Markdown-based comments in the ZenUML diagram syntax are susceptible to Cross-site Scripting (XSS). Details The comment feature allows the user to attach small notes for reference. This feature allows the user to enter in their comment in markdown comment, allowing them to use common markdown features, such as `` for bolded text. However, the markdown text is currently not sanitized before rendering, allowing an attacker to enter a malicious payload for the comment which leads to XSS. https://github.com/mermaid-js/zenuml-core/blob/dcfee8cde42673c09e19401f43ad8506658c8442/src/components/DiagramFrame/SeqDiagram/MessageLayer/Block/Statement/Comment/Comment.vue#L65 PoC ``` // p A->B:hi ``` Above is a POC diagram payload that results in an XSS. Here is a similar POC in mermaid.live: https://mermaid.live/edit#pako:eNpNjrFuwyAQhl8F3dRK1DaQGhs1kVq1Y6duFQsylwTVgEWw1MTyuxc5S7df39399y0wRIug4IZh9qMOdU2mF-dPJAZMKaa9GTHlB_ZILmnYa9BQH3R4fTq8qbMDCh6TN86WhkUHQjTkM3rUoEq0Jv2Ui7CWPTPn-HUNA6icZqQwT9ZkfHfmlIwHdTTjpVC0Lsf0eVfazChMJoBa4BdUL6uGC8n7TrCGd5zCFRRnXbVjvBVNK3gJXbtSuMVYSlnFC-Kyf961UshWbmXf2-y_xcf29c7WP2yrVC0 Impact This puts existing applications that use ZenUML unsandboxed** at risk of arbitrary JavaScript execution when rendering user-controlled diagrams.
