Prior to 3.2.1, the mistune math plugin renders inline math ($...$) and block math ($$...$$) by concatenating the raw user-supplied content directly into the HTML output without any HTML escaping. This occurs even when the parser is explicitly created with escape=True, which is supposed to guarantee that all user-controlled text is sanitised before reaching the DOM. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.1.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","score":6.1},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"references":["https://github.com/lepture/mistune/releases/tag/v3.2.1","https://github.com/lepture/mistune/security/advisories/GHSA-8g87-j6q8-g93x","https://github.com/lepture/mistune/security/advisories/GHSA-8g87-j6q8-g93x"],"products":["mistune_project:mistune"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:36:28.938604137+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-44708","score":0.00228,"percentile":0.13621,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-8g87-j6q8-g93x","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-8g87-j6q8-g93x","summary":"Mistune Math Plugin has an XSS Escape Bypass","modified":"2026-09-10T03:51:04.993819302Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"mistune","purl":"pkg:pypi/mistune","ranges":["<=3.2.0"],"fixed":[]}]},{"id":"PYSEC-2026-2206","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/PYSEC-2026-2206","summary":"","modified":"2026-07-13T07:15:28.892148369Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"mistune","purl":"pkg:pypi/mistune","ranges":["<3.2.1"],"fixed":["3.2.1"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
