CVE-2019-16769
CVE-2019-16769 · Affected versions of serialize-javascript are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS)
This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.
The serialize-javascript npm package before version 2.1.1 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS). It does not properly mitigate against unsafe characters in serialized regular expressions. This vulnerability is not affected on Node.js environment since Node.js's implementation of RegExp.prototype.toString() backslash-escapes all forward slashes in regular expressions. If serialized data of regular expression objects are used in an environment other than Node.js, it is affected by this vulnerability.
