In Joomla! before 3.9.19, the default settings of the global textfilter configuration do not block HTML inputs for Guest users.

Weakness

The product does not preserve permissions or incorrectly preserves permissions when copying, restoring, or sharing objects, which can cause them to have less restrictive permissions than intended.
