JavaScript execution via unescaped JSON-LD metadata
Published Jan 10, 2026 · Updated Jan 10, 2026
Cross-site scripting in React Router's Meta API allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript through server-rendered JSON-LD. The Meta component serializes script:ld+json data with JSON.stringify and writes the raw result through dangerouslySetInnerHTML without escaping HTML-significant characters. Exploitation requires Framework Mode, SSR, attacker-influenced metadata, and a user who loads the rendered page; Declarative and Data Modes are unaffected.
