Descriptions

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Progress Kendo UI Editor v2018.1.221 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the DOM of the WYSIWYG editor because of the editorNS.Serializer toEditableHtml function in kendo.all.min.js. If the victim accesses the editor, the payload gets executed. Furthermore, if the payload is reflected at any other resource that does rely on the sanitisation of the editor itself, the JavaScript payload will be executed in the context of the application. This allows attackers (in the worst case) to take over user sessions.

Vulnerabilidad Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) en Progress Kendo UI Editor v2018.1.221 permite que atacantes remotos inyecten JavaScript arbitrario en el DOM del editor WYSIWYG debido a la función editorNS.Serializer toEditableHtml en kendo.all.min.js. Si la víctima accede al editor, la carga útil se ejecuta. Además, si la carga útil se refleja en otro recurso que depende del saneamiento del propio editor, la carga útil de JavaScript se ejecutará en el contexto de la aplicación. Esto permite que los atacantes (en el peor de los casos) tomen el control de las sesiones de usuario.

Progress Kendo UI Editor version 2018.1.221 suffers from a persistent cross site scripting vulnerability.
