Photons form elecromagnetic waves, it's well known that electomagnetic waves have both electric and magnetic components (there are connected H~[n, E]).Thus photones can "have" magnetism.

No. Gamma rays are photons (light particles). Photons are particles with no mass, no charge and no magnetic moment.

Why don't light waves need a medium to ravel?

Light waves are part of the electromagnetic force. Maxwell's laws show that electricity produces magnetism and magnetism produces electricity. The two propulgate through space as oscillating waves at ninety degrees to each other; as the electric wave moves it generates the magnetic one, and vice versa. Thus, it doesn't need a medium; it perpetuates itself.It helps that photons, the smallest quantum "packet" of light, can't decay because decay would imply time, and photons exist outside of Time. Or perhaps it is better to say Time doesn't move for photons. This is a consequence of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, that demonstrates that time slows down as one approaches the speed of light. Since photons travel at the speed of light, time slows to zero.

How does electromagnetism travel?

electromagnetism is also one type of magnetism. magnetism is a type of attractive or repulsive force. basically there are 3 types of forces. 1. nuclear force 2. magnetic force 3. gravitational force. every force propagates from one place to another place by extremely small and indivisible particles. magnetism propagates by small particles called 'gravitons'. similarly nuclear force travel by small particles called 'mesons'. and gravitational force by 'gravitons'. and also light by 'photons'.
