xmldom is a pure JavaScript W3C standard-based (XML DOM Level 2 Core) DOMParser and XMLSerializer module. Prior to @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.14 and 0.9.11, and in xmldom version 0.6.0 and earlier, Document.createElement(tagName) stores an unvalidated element name and XMLSerializer.serializeToString() emits that name verbatim. The requireWellFormed: true path did not validate the element qualified name or synthesized xmlns:PREFIX declaration, so attacker-controlled tag names could inject attributes, elements, or processing instructions into serialized XML or HTML and could cause cross-site scripting when browser-consumed. The unchecked values violate the XML QName constraint, and default serialization and creation-time createElement() behavior remain permissive. This issue is fixed in @xmldom/xmldom versions 0.8.14 and 0.9.11; no fixed version is available for xmldom.

GHSA-w2rr-34g9-rvrj — xmldom: Element name injection via createElement() bypasses requireWellFormed

Affected: npm: @xmldom/xmldom, npm: xmldom

## Summary

`Document.createElement()` in `@xmldom/xmldom` accepts arbitrary strings as the `tagName` parameter with zero validation. The serializer emits the tag name verbatim into XML/HTML output. Critically, the `requireWellFormed: true` serializer option — the recommended mitigation from CVE-2026-41672, CVE-2026-41674, and CVE-2026-34601 — did NOT catch this, making it a bypass of the existing security controls.

An attacker who controls the element name string can inject arbitrary attributes (including event handlers) into the serialized output, leading to XSS when the output is consumed by a browser or downstream parser.

## Details

`Document.createElement()` accepts any string as `tagName` and stores it directly on the element node without validation. When the document is later serialized via `XMLSerializer.serializeToString()`, the serializer emits the `tagName` verbatim into the output.

The XML specification requires element names to conform to the `Name` production. The existing `createAttributeNS()` and `createElementNS()` methods validate qualified names against an anchored name/`QName` pattern, but `createElement()` bypasses this entirely, and the `requireWellFormed: true` serializer path performed no element-name validation — rendering it ineffective against this vector.

### Root Cause

1. `createElement()` stores the raw `tagName` string without any validation. 2. The serializer's `requireWellFormed` code path did not validate element names against the XML…
