    ckeditor is a A highly configurable WYSIWYG HTML editor.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks. It was possible to execute XSS inside CKEditor after persuading the victim to switch CKEditor to source mode, then paste a specially crafted HTML code, prepared by the attacker, into the opened CKEditor source area, and switch back to WYSIWYG mode.

    Upgrade ckeditor to version 4.11.0 or higher.
