Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The prosemirror-view npm package, versions before 1.42.3, has a cross-site scripting flaw in its paste handling. An attacker can supply HTML that, when pasted into a ProseMirror editor, runs attacker-controlled JavaScript in the browser window containing the editor. Upgrade prosemirror-view to version 1.42.3, which adds validation that prevents this; the source lists no workarounds.
