  - DOMPurify before 3.4.16 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows attackers to bypass
    sanitization because IN_PLACE mode returns a force-removed style element whose text content still carries
    markup. Attackers can supply a style element containing a closing style tag and an img onerror payload,
    which executes script when the application serializes and re-parses the returned node. (CVE-2026-109345)
