Dependency Hierarchy: - parcel-bundler-1.11.0.tgz (Root Library) - :x: **serialize-to-js-1.2.1.tgz** (Vulnerable Library)
Found in HEAD commit: f8d44c382168ebea3a3dae2b5347a7ffe36f343a
Found in base branch: dev/seed-tool
The serialize-to-js NPM package before version 3.0.1 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.
