+ "details": "## Summary\n\n`justhtml` `1.17.0` fixes multiple security issues in sanitization, serialization, and programmatic DOM handling.\n\nMost of these issues affected advanced or custom configurations rather than the default safe path.\n\n## Affected versions\n\n- `justhtml` `<= 1.16.0`\n\n## Fixed version\n\n- `justhtml` `1.17.0` released on April 19, 2026\n\n## Impact\n\n### Custom SVG / MathML sanitization policies\nCustom policies that preserved foreign namespaces could allow dangerous content to survive sanitization, including:\n\n- active HTML integration points such as SVG `<foreignObject>`, MathML `<annotation-xml encoding=\"text/html\">`, SVG `<title>` / `<desc>`, and MathML text integration points\n- mutation-XSS parser-differential payloads that looked inert in memory but became active HTML after reparse\n- SVG `filter=\"url(...)\"` attributes that could trigger external fetches\n\nThese issues affected:\n- `JustHTML(..., sanitize=True)` with custom foreign-namespace policies\n- `sanitize()` / `sanitize_dom()`\n- low-level terminal `Sanitize(...)` transform execution\n\n### Preserved `<style>` handling\nConstructor-time sanitization and explicit `Sanitize(...)` transforms did not fully match `sanitize()` / `sanitize_dom()` when custom policies preserved `<style>`.\n\nThat could leave resource-loading CSS such as `@import` or `background-image:url(...)` in sanitized output from HTML string input.\n\n### Programmatic DOM serialization\nProgrammatic `script`, `style`, and `Comment(...)` nodes could still serialize into active markup in some edge cases.\n\nThis could affect applications that build or mutate DOM trees directly before calling `to_html()` or `to_markdown(html_passthrough=True)`.\n\n### Cache mutation and DOM cycle handling\nTwo lower-severity hardening fixes were included:\n\n- compiled sanitize-pipeline caches could be mutated after warming and weaken later sanitization\n- parent/child cycles in programmatic DOM trees could cause infinite loops in operations such as `to_html()` and `sanitize_dom()`\n\n## Default configuration\n\nMost of the issues above did **not** affect ordinary parsed HTML with the default `JustHTML(..., sanitize=True)` configuration.\n\nThe main risk areas were:\n\n- custom policies that preserve SVG or MathML\n- custom policies that preserve `<style>`\n- programmatic DOM construction or mutation\n- low-level direct sanitizer/transform APIs\n\n## Recommended action\n\nUpgrade to `justhtml` `1.17.0`.\n\nIf users cannot upgrade immediately:\n\n- avoid preserving SVG or MathML for untrusted input\n- avoid preserving `<style>` for untrusted input\n- avoid mutating programmatic DOM trees with untrusted `script`, `style`, or comment content\n- avoid mutating warmed policy internals or sanitizer caches\n\n## Credit\n\nDiscovered during an internal security review of `justhtml`.",
