Technical details
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the TinyMCE media plugin. The root cause is the improper neutralization of user-controllable input within 'data-mce-object' and 'data-mce-p-*' attributes. An attacker with low privileges can inject malicious scripts via these crafted attributes, which are then executed in the context of the victim's browser when the content is rendered. The vulnerability has been patched in versions 8.5.1, 7.9.3, and 5.11.1 LTS by implementing proper sanitization for these specific attributes.
