Impact

A regex denial of service (ReDoS) vulnerability was discovered in a dependency of the codesample plugin. The vulnerability allowed poorly formed ruby code samples to lock up the browser while performing syntax highlighting. This impacts users of the codesample plugin using TinyMCE 5.5.1 or lower.

Patches

This vulnerability has been patched in TinyMCE 5.6.0 by upgrading to a version of the dependency without the vulnerability.

Workarounds

To work around this vulnerability, either:

• Upgrade to TinyMCE 5.6.0 or higher
• Disable the codesample plugin
• Disable ruby code samples using the codesample_languages setting
• Override the PrismJS syntax highlighter to version 1.21.0 or higher using the codesample_global_prismjs setting

Acknowledgements

Tiny Technologies would like to thank Erik Krogh Kristensen at GitHub for discovering this vulnerability.
