CVE-2026-5751— justhtml before 1.14.0 Mutation XSS via custom sanitization policies

Quick assessment

Affected
EmilStenstrom justhtml
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

justhtml 1.13.0 及更早版本在使用自定义的 SanitizationPolicy（保留外部命名空间，例如设置 drop_foreign_namespaces=False 并允许 SVG/MathML 元素或原始文本容器如 <style>）时，存在解析器差异/突变型跨站脚本（mXSS）漏洞。经过特殊构造的输入在经过 sanitization 处理后，可能生成看似安全的标记，但在被浏览器或其他 HTML 解析器重新解析时会变得不安全，从而导致标记注入。默认的默认安全配置（sanitize=True）不受影

Vulnerability Title
justhtml before 1.14.0 Mutation XSS via custom sanitization policies
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
justhtml versions 1.13.0 and earlier contain a parser-differential / mutation cross-site scripting (mXSS) vulnerability when using a custom SanitizationPolicy that preserves foreign namespaces (e.g., drop_foreign_namespaces=False with allowlisted SVG/MathML elements or raw-text containers such as <style>). Specially crafted input can sanitize into markup that appears safe but becomes unsafe when re-parsed by a browser or another HTML parser, allowing markup injection. The default safe configuration (sanitize=True) is not affected. Fixed in 1.14.0.
