NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jupyter-notebook package and not the jupyter-notebook package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Jupyter notebook is a web-based notebook environment for interactive computing. In affected versions untrusted notebook can execute code on load. Jupyter Notebook uses a deprecated version of Google Caja to sanitize user inputs. A public Caja bypass can be used to trigger an XSS when a victim opens a malicious ipynb document in Jupyter Notebook. The XSS allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the victim computer using Jupyter APIs.
