hono is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
61
Medium Risk
This Affects:
honoTL;DR
The cx() utility in hono/css composes class names from plain strings but marks the result as already-escaped without HTML-escaping the input. When the composed value is used as a JSX class attribute during server-side rendering, the normal attribute escaping is skipped, so characters such as " pass through unescaped. Untrusted input passed as a class name can break out of the class attribute and inject arbitrary markup, resulting in server-side Cross-Site Scripting. The fix escapes the composed class name before it is emitted into the attribute.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and your application renders JSX server-side and passes untrusted input as a class name to cx() from hono/css.
