Description
TinaCMS rich-text parsing and the default link/image renderers did not sanitize the url field on Slate link/image nodes. Content containing javascript: or data:text/html URLs — including case-variant, whitespace-padded, and control-character-obfuscated forms — is rendered into href/src and executes when the content is viewed.
Recommendation
Update the @tinacms/mdx package to the latest compatible version. Followings are version details:
