📦bootstrap-vue

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects npm packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Versions of bootstrap-vue prior to 2.0.0-rc.12 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting. Due to insufficient input sanitization, components may be vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting through the options variable. This may lead to the execution of malicious JavaScript on the user's browser.

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 2.0.0-rc.12 or later.
