DescriptionGitHub Advisory

svelte performance oriented web framework. Prior to 5.51.5, when using <svelte:element this={tag}> in server-side rendering, the provided tag name is not validated or sanitized before being emitted into the HTML output. If the tag string contains unexpected characters, it can result in HTML injection in the SSR output. Client-side rendering is not affected. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.51.5.

AnalysisAI

HTML injection in Svelte's server-side rendering occurs when the <svelte:element> tag parameter fails to sanitize user-supplied tag names, allowing attackers to inject malicious HTML into rendered output. This affects Svelte versions prior to 5.51.5 and requires user interaction to exploit, with client-side rendering remaining unaffected. …
