Nuxt: Reflected XSS in `` via unsanitised `javascript:` or `data:` URL
GitHub lists this reviewed advisory for nuxt, nuxt. Published version ranges and source prerequisites are shown below; this is not an inspection of a visitor’s application.
This report has not inspected your inventory, configuration, deployed build, reachability or evidence. A catalog listing and a severity score do not establish exposure or compromise.
01 / Meaning
Why it matters
Published affected context helps an owner decide what evidence to gather. This report has not examined your application.
02 / Applicability

### Summary `` did not validate the URL scheme of values bound to its `to` or `href` props before rendering them into the `href` attribute of the underlying `` element. When an application binds attacker-controlled input (a query parameter, a CMS field, a user-supplied profile URL) to `` or `:href`, the attacker can supply a `javascript:` or `vbscript:` URL that is reflected verbatim into the rendered markup. Clicking the link executes the supplied script in the origin of the Nuxt application, resulting in reflected DOM-based cross-site scripting. A `data:text/html,...` payload reflected through the same sink does not execute in the application's origin but enables a same-tab phishing surface anchored to a legitimate application link. The same value was exposed to consumers of the component's `custom` slot via the `href` and `route.href` props, so applications that re-bind those values to their own anchors were affected identically. Unlike the previously reported `navigateTo` issue (CVE-2024-34343), the sink here is the rendered anchor itself; the existing `isScriptProtocol` checks in `navigateTo` and `reloadNuxtApp` are not on the code path.

03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
