Security Updates:

A cross-site scripting vulnerability has been discovered affecting Iframe Dialog and Media Embed plugins.

This vulnerability might affect a small percentage of integrators that depend on dynamic editor initialization/destroy mechanism. See GitHub advisory for more details.

Potential breaking changes

In some rare cases, a security release may introduce a breaking change to your application. We have provided configuration options that will help you mitigate any potential issues with the upgrade:

• Starting from version 4.21, the Iframe Dialog plugin applies the sandbox attribute by default, which restricts JavaScript code execution in the iframe element. To change this behavior, configure the config.iframe_attributes option.
• Starting from version 4.21, the Media Embed plugin regenerates the entire content of the embed widget by default. To change this behavior, configure the config.embed_keepOriginalContent option.

If you choose to change either of the above options, make sure to properly configure Content Security Policy to avoid any potential security issues that may arise from embedding iframe elements on your web page.

You can read more details in the relevant security advisory and contact us if you have more questions.

An upgrade is highly recommended!

v4.20.2

Compare Source

Fixed Issues:

• #​439: Fixed: Incorrect Tab and Shift+Tab navigation for radio buttons inside the dialog.
• #​4829: Fixed: Undo reversed entire table content instead of a single cell. Thanks to that fix, multiple changes in a table can be undone one by one.
• #​5396: Fixed: Event listeners for popstate and hashchange events on the window, added by the Maximize plugin, were not removed when destroying the editor instance.
• #​5414: Fixed: File and image uploaders based on the Upload Widget plugin and Easy Image plugin didn't fire the change event upon finishing upload, resulting in passing incorrect data in form controls for integration frameworks, like Reactive forms in Angular.
• #​698: Fixed: An error was thrown after applying formatting to the widget with inline editable and switching to the source mode. Thanks to Glen!

API changes:

• #​3540: The startup data passed to the widget's command is now used to also populate the widget's template.
• #​5352: Added the colorButton_contentsCss configuration option allowing to add custom CSS to the Color Button menu content. Thanks to mihilion!
