Description

I copied an article from a website and everything seemed fine, but I noticed that many pictures are missing.

Your product didn't store pictures? Or how I can get it back?

Research direction
Investigate the paste event handling in the editor component. Check how images from clipboard are processed, e.g., extracted as files or URLs. Look for any filtering or size limitations that might cause images to be dropped. The bug might be in the content sanitization module or in the pasting logic in the JavaScript code.
