There is a paid-for version that does have security patches, see [[https://ckeditor.com/ckeditor-4/download/]]

-==== Only a template or a message can be edited as a full HTML page, not both. This message will use only limited HTML. ==== 
- 
-By default, CKEditor allows only a limited set of HTML elements to be used. If you want it to generate a full HTML page, including the structural elements (''head'', ''body'' etc), then one of the settings "Allow templates to be edited as full HTML pages" or "Allow messages to be edited as full HTML pages" needs to be enabled in the CKEditor section on the Settings page. 
- 
-When one of those settings is enabled, CKEditor will ensure that the HTML structural elements are present, even if not entered directly. This means that it is not sensible to edit both templates and messages as full HTML pages because both will include structural elements leading to badly-formed HTML when a template includes a message using the [CONTENT] placeholder. 
- 
-If both of those settings are enabled then the one for templates takes precedence, and CKEditor will allow only limited HTML when editing a message. 
  
-If you want to create only full page HTML messages and do not use templates then set "Allow templates ..." to No and "Allow messages ..." to Yes.
