Wagtail is an open source content management system built on Django. Prior to versions 6.3.8, 7.0.6, 7.2.3, and 7.3.1, a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists on rendering TableBlock blocks within a StreamField. A user with access to create or edit pages containing TableBlock StreamField blocks is able to set specially-crafted class attributes on the block which run arbitrary JavaScript code when the page is viewed. When viewed by a user with higher privileges, this could lead to performing actions with that user's credentials. The vulnerability is not exploitable by an ordinary site visitor without access to the Wagtail admin, and only affects sites using TableBlock. This issue has been patched in versions 6.3.8, 7.0.6, 7.2.3, and 7.3.1.

Affected: PyPI: wagtail

### Impact A stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists on rendering `TableBlock` blocks within a StreamField. A user with access to create or edit pages containing `TableBlock` StreamField blocks is able to set specially-crafted `class` attributes on the block which run arbitrary JavaScript code when the page is viewed. When viewed by a user with higher privileges, this could lead to performing actions with that user's credentials. The vulnerability is not exploitable by an ordinary site visitor without access to the Wagtail admin, and only affects sites using TableBlock.

### Patches Patched versions have been released as Wagtail 6.3.8, 7.0.6, 7.2.3 and 7.3.1.

### Workarounds Site owners who are unable to upgrade to the new versions can remediate the vulnerability by setting a `template` attribute on all TableBlock definitions, referencing a template that does not output `class` attributes. For example:

```django <!-- For use with TableBlock(template="path/to/table_block.html") --> <table> {% if table_caption %} <caption>{{ table_caption }}</caption> {% endif %} {% if table_header %} <thead> <tr> {% for cell in table_header %} <th scope="col">{{ cell }}</th> {% endfor %} </tr> </thead> {% endif %} <tbody> {% for row in data %} <tr> {% for cell in row %} {% if first_col_is_header and for…
