CVE-2026-59929
Last modified
CVE-2026-59929 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.1/10 on the CVSS scale. Mistune is a Python Markdown parser with renderers and plugins. Prior to 3.3.0, the safe_url filter in src/mistune/renderers/html.py blocks only javascript:, vbscript:, file:, and data: schemes, allowing legacy or chained schemes such as feed:, view-source:, jar:, livescript:, mocha:, ms-its:, mk:, and res: to reach rendered href and src attributes and potentially execute script in affected user agents. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
