OWASP HTML Sanitizer (aka owasp-java-html-sanitizer) before 88, when JavaScript is disabled, allows user-assisted remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information via a crafted FORM element within a NOSCRIPT element.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects older OWASP Java HTML Sanitizer releases before version 88. Under the specific condition that JavaScript is disabled, crafted sanitized content could include form behavior inside a NOSCRIPT element and trick a user into disclosing sensitive information. Exposure is most likely in Java applications that sanitize and then render untrusted HTML using owasp-java-html-sanitizer versions before 88, especially where users may browse with JavaScript disabled. Handle as targeted dependency risk, not an emergency based on available evidence. Prioritize if the organization renders user-supplied HTML and still uses sanitizer versions before 88. Mitigation focus: Inventory applications using owasp-java-html-sanitizer.; Confirm whether any deployed version is before 88.; Move off pre-88 versions after checking current vendor guidance..
