The CKEditor 4 LTS - WYSIWYG HTML editor module uses the CKEditor library for WYSIWYG editing. CKEditor has released a security update that on certain configurations may impact the Drupal module that bundles and integrates this code.

The vulnerability is mitigated by the fact it requires:

  1. full-page editing mode is enabled
  2. or CDATA elements in Advanced Content Filtering configuration (defaults to script and style elements) are enabled.
  3. An attacker must have a permission with access to the CKEditor instance.

For more information, see CKEditor's security advisory:
CVE-2024-24815: Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability caused by incorrect CDATA detection
