BDSA-2021-1834
Quill is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) because it does not correctly sanitize user input before it is processed. An attacker could exploit this flaw to execute malicious JavaScript code in a victim's browser, which can result in the theft of session tokens or cookies. **Note**: the vendor disputes this issue, asserting that potentially dangerous content should be sanitized before being passed and loaded into the Quill editor.

We found issue where the nested bullets formatting is not getting formed correct.
The nested bullets getting formatted like this
<ul> <li>myItem 1</li> <li>myItem 2</li> <li style="list-style-type:none"> <li>myItem 2a</li> <li>myItem 3</li></ul>
instead of getting formatted like this is which is preferred
<ul> <li>myItem 1</li> <li>myItem 2</li> <li style="list-style-type:none"> <ul> <li>myItem 2a</li> </ul> </li> <li>myItem 3</li></ul>
Thank you for your patience. This behavior should be fixed in v1.12.2 that was just released.
Hello,

Hi, how can I deploy this plugin to a on prem environment? I followed the steps on this link Rich Text Editor Component Troubleshooting Guide
But after moving the .zip file to the plugins folder I'm getting below issue.
2023-12-15 19:02:47,704 [Appian Plugin Hot Deploy] ERROR com.appiancorp.plugins.LoggingPluginEventListener - Failed to load Component Plug-in 'rich-text-editor-component-plug-in-1.12.1.zip-signed.zip': Could not parse zip file - make sure it is formatted properly
Hello, we're encountering odd behavior when pasting text into the richTextFieldWithTables component.
If multiple lines of text (separated by line breaks) are pasted into an area with formatting enabled such as bold or italics, the text is inserted in reverse order. I've attached a video demonstrating this.
We're able to work around this by using the "Remove Font Style" button before pasting, but we're hoping other workarounds exist or a more permanent solution can be implemented. For reference, we're using plug-in version 1.12.0 on Appian 23.3.
Thank you!
