CVE-2026-44727 — Jupyter Server: Stored XSS in `NbconvertFileHandler` / `NbconvertPostHandler` via missing `sandbox` CSP

Affected: jupyter-server jupyter_server, Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Applications 8.2, Red Hat OpenShift AI 3.4, Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI)

Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. Prior to 2.20, the nbconvert HTTP handlers in jupyter_server render user-authored notebook HTML under the Jupyter origin without a sandbox directive in their Content-Security-Policy. Combined with nbconvert.HTMLExporter's default non-sanitizing behavior, a notebook carrying an HTML payload in a display_data output triggers stored XSS with cookie access, full /api/* authority, and kernel RCE. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.20.

GHSA-fcw5-x6j4-ccmp — Jupyter Server: Stored XSS in `NbconvertFileHandler` / `NbconvertPostHandler` via missing `sandbox` CSP

Affected: PyPI: jupyter-server

The nbconvert HTTP handlers in jupyter_server render user-authored notebook HTML under the Jupyter origin without a sandbox directive in their `Content-Security-Policy`.

Combined with `nbconvert.HTMLExporter`'s default non-sanitizing behavior, a notebook carrying an HTML payload in a display_data output triggers stored XSS with cookie access, full /api/* authority, and kernel RCE.

### Impact

An authenticated victim who navigates to `/nbconvert/html/<path>` containing attacker-authored output can have their token exfiltrated to another domain because it is executed in the Jupyter origin.

### Patches

Fixed in v2.20.0, commit [6cbee8d](https://github.com/jupyter-server/jupyter_server/commit/6cbee8d65e71abac851c4492fea987ad080580bd)

### Workarounds

For deployments where editing the installed jupyter_server is impractical (containerized builds, read-only images), adding this to jupyter_server_config.py has the same effect as the patch above without touching source files:

``` import jupyter_server.nbconvert.handlers as _nb

def _csp(self): return super(type(self), self).content_security_policy + "; sandbox allow-scripts"

_nb.NbconvertFileHandler.content_security_policy = property(_csp) _nb.NbconvertPostHandler.content_security_policy = property(_csp) ```
