SCA: security update for @tinacms/app, tinacms (GHSA-g5qx-h5f3-mp2f)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443727

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Tina is a headless content management system. In versions prior to @tinacms/app 2.5.6 and tinacms 3.9.3,
cross-origin postMessage handlers and a rich-text URL-sanitization bypass enable stored XSS and session
takeover. The library registers window message listeners — the useTina overlay handler, the OAuth
authentication popup handler, and the admin↔preview iframe GraphQL reducer — that act on event.data
without verifying event.origin or event.source and post messages using non-specific target origins, while
insufficient URL sanitization in rich-text content allows malicious URLs to persist and execute. A page
the victim visits (or a window in an opener/iframe relationship with a Tina admin) can forge messages to
drive the editor, inject preview content, or observe/forge the OAuth popup channel to take over an
authenticated editing session. This issue has been fixed in versions @tinacms/app 2.5.6 and tinacms 3.9.3.
(CVE-2026-55660)

Solution

Update the @tinacms/app library and its related packages to version 2.5.6 or later.
