CVE-2026-33500: AVideo - Incomplete Fix for CVE-2026-27568: Stored XSS via Markdown `javascript:` URI Bypasses ParsedownSafeWithLinks Sanitization

March 20, 2026

The fix for CVE-2026-27568 (GHSA-rcqw-6466-3mv7) introduced a custom ParsedownSafeWithLinks class that sanitizes raw HTML <a> and <img> tags in comments, but explicitly disables Parsedown’s safeMode. This creates a bypass: markdown link syntax [text](javascript:alert(1)) is processed by Parsedown’s inlineLink() method, which does not go through the custom sanitizeATag() sanitization (that only handles raw HTML tags). With safeMode disabled, Parsedown’s built-in javascript: URI filtering (sanitiseElement()/filterUnsafeUrlInAttribute()) is also inactive. An attacker can inject stored XSS via comment markdown links.
