Prior to @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.15 and 0.9.12, and in xmldom version 0.6.0 and earlier, the DOCUMENT_TYPE_NODE branch in lib/dom.js validates publicId, systemId, and internalSubset under requireWellFormed: true but emits DocumentType.name verbatim. A name containing > or whitespace can terminate the <!DOCTYPE ...> declaration and inject sibling markup; the value can be supplied through createDocumentType() on the 0.8.x and unscoped lines or through a direct DocumentType.name property write on every affected line. The default path and legacy creation-time behavior remain permissive, while the vulnerable strict path fails to enforce an XML Name. This issue is fixed in @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.15 and 0.9.12; no fixed version is available for xmldom.","published":"2026-09-01T15:17:38.800","modified":"2026-09-01T15:17:38.800","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/57aec90ac57b4408ae7c5d1746bf2a693b5ed90e","label":"xmldom/xmldom@57aec90"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/57aec90ac57b4408ae7c5d1746bf2a693b5ed90e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/commit/85f12eb4d14b44de33216cfb72b50af4d24e9fdd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/pull/1071"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/pull/1072"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/releases/tag/0.8.15"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/releases/tag/0.9.12"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/xmldom/xmldom/security/advisories/GHSA-27p8-2357-5qqv"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","NVD","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-09-01T15:17:38.800"}}
