CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-79  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade dompurify to version 0.8.0 or higher.

Overview

dompurify is a DOM-only XSS sanitizer for HTML, MathML and SVG. Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks. SVG tags are case sensitive, but DOMPurify transforms these tags to lowercase. This causes the SVG document to render incorrectly, and may trigger a flaw in the Opera browser.
