Description

Notesnook is a note-taking app. Prior to version 3.3.11 on Web/Desktop, a cross-site scripting vulnerability stored in the note history comparison viewer can escalate to remote code execution in a desktop application. The issue is triggered when an attacker-controlled note header is displayed using `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` without secure handling. When combined with the full backup and restore feature in the desktop application, this becomes remote code execution because Electron is configured with `nodeIntegration: true` and `contextIsolation: false`. Version 3.3.11 patches the issue.

Analysis

Cross-site scripting in Notesnook Web/Desktop versions prior to 3.3.11 escalates to remote code execution when combined with the application's backup restore feature. The vulnerability triggers when attacker-controlled note headers render through unsafe `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` in the history comparison viewer, exploiting Electron's `nodeIntegration: true` and `contextIsolation: false` configuration to execute arbitrary code on victim systems. …
