    React-href-prop

    React href prop

    Untrusted input could be used to tamper with a web page rendering, which can lead to a Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. XSS vulnerabilities occur when untrusted input executes malicious JavaScript code, leading to issues such as account compromise and sensitive information leakage. To prevent this vulnerability, validate URLs and their protocol before using them in your codebase.
    Likelihood: MEDIUM
    Confidence: LOW
    CWE:
    - CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (‘Cross-site Scripting’)
    OWASP:
    - A07:2017 - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
    - A03:2021 - Injection
