SA-CORE-2026-011: XSS

Published Jul 15, 2026
·
Updated

Drupal core 11.2 and above integrate the HTMX JavaScript library. Drupal core's XSS filter does not sufficiently sanitize certain HTMX attributes, which can lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The vulnerability is mitigated by the fact an attacker must be able to insert HTML with specific attributes.
