Insecure functionality In node-dompurify

Description

DOMPurify before 3.4.0 contains a logic error in the ADD_TAGS function where short-circuit evaluation allows forbidden tags to bypass FORBID_TAGS restrictions. Attackers can craft input containing tags listed in FORBID_TAGS that are also added via ADD_TAGS function, causing them to be retained in sanitized output.

Mitigation

Update Impact

Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
