# CVE-2025-71465: @kolkov/angular-editor before 3.0.3 XSS via refreshView()

Status: published. Published: 2026-11-14. Updated: 2026-11-14.

@kolkov/angular-editor before 3.0.3 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in refreshView() that writes HTML from ngModel or reactive form controls to innerHTML without DomSanitizer, bypassing the default sanitize option. Attackers can store HTML with event-handler attributes in content later loaded into the editor to execute script in the application's origin for users opening it.
