Notesnook vulnerable to RCE via stored XSS in Web Clipper rendering

Summary

Notesnook vulnerable to RCE via stored XSS in Web Clipper rendering

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Notesnook is a note-taking app. Prior to version 3.3.11 on Web/Desktop and 3.3.17 on Android/iOS, a stored XSS in the Web Clipper rendering flow can be escalated to remote code execution in the desktop app. The root cause is that the clipper preserves attacker-controlled attributes from the source page’s root element and stores them inside web-clip HTML. When the clip is later opened, Notesnook renders that HTML into a same-origin, unsandboxed iframe using contentDocument.write(...). Event-handler attributes such as onload, onclick, or onmouseover execute in the Notesnook origin. In the desktop app, this becomes RCE because Electron is configured with nodeIntegration: true and contextIsolation: false. Version 3.3.11 Web/Desktop and 3.3.17 on Android/iOS patch the issue.
