[TLP:CLEAR] React Server Components fixes a critical vulnerability
React versions 19.0.1, 19.1.2 and 19.2.1 fix a critical, actively exploited vulnerability in React Server Components (packages react-server-dom-parcel, react-server-dom-turbopack and react-server-dom-webpack). The affected frameworks are next, react-router, waku, @parcel/rsc, @vitejs/plugin-rsc and rwsdk [1][2].
An unauthenticated remote attacker can execute code on the server by sending a specially crafted HTTP request [1][2]. The vulnerability is already being actively exploited [3][4]. Applications supporting React Server Components may be vulnerable even if they do not implement any React Server Function endpoint [2]. Detailed information on the vulnerability and fixes can be found at [2]. PoCs are available at [5]
