M2.1.2 - Inserting Image through WYSIWYG Drops HTML in Wrong Field

[ghost]

Preconditions

1. Magento CE 2.1.2
2. PHP 7.0.8+
3. MySQL 5.6+
4. Globally set WYSIWYG to not display by default.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open up any product/page.
2. Find the "Description" field.
3. Click on "Show Editor" to see WYSIWYG.
4. Click on "Select Image" button.
5. Follow process to insert image into WYSIWYG (or upload new image and select that one).

Expected result

1. Image should appear in WYSIWYG

Actual result

1. Image tag appears in "Short Description" field.

Extra Notes

This seems to be similar to #6138 and #5811, with the added bonus of the image tag being inserted into the wrong field. An ETA as to when this will make it into the production build would be greatly appreciated.

Any update on this? Like a temporary fix. Still present in Magento 2.2.

@ghost, thank you for your report.

Unfortunately, we are archiving this ticket now as it did not get much attention from both Magento Community and Core developers for an extended period. This is done in an effort to create a quality, community-driven backlog which will allow us to allocate the required attention more easily.

Please feel free to comment or reopen the ticket if you think it should be reviewed once more. Thank you for collaboration.

Hello @magento-engcom-team

This issue is still present in Magento 2.2.4, so please review this once more. At the moment you are unable to use the WYSIWYG editor to insert images so the flow is not user friendly anymore.
Would happy to assist on this matter to resolve it.
