Summary20184: CKEditor 4.22.1
Description

Hi,

as CKEditor 4 is EOL (June 2023) and has several security issues (still used in LS 6.15.4), is it possible that you implement a newer version from CKEditor (newest version is 46.0.0) in a future update of the Limesurvey Community Edition?

Thanks in advance
Thomas

These are notes for migration process.

If the process is tricky, there are also alternatives:

I guess a markdown editor is not a choice, because of that situations in which the survey administrator injected javascript code such as jquery.
