Comment:

 Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the ticket.

 That regex is in the `wp_strip_all_tags()` function, and its purpose is to
 remove all script and style tags from the passed string, including their
 content.

 There is a
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/6.0.1/tests/phpunit/tests/formatting/wpStripAllTags.php
 basic unit test for the function] to make sure it works as expected, and
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/runs/7999773776?check_suite_focus=true it passes in the current
 builds]. Introduced in [27042] / #25507.

 Could you elaborate a bit more on what is the issue here? Does it still
 happen with all plugins disabled and a default theme (Twenty Twenty-Two)
 activated? Could you share the steps to reproduce it on a clean install?
