Description
Versions of quill prior to 1.3.7 are vulnerable to Reverse Tabnabbing. The package uses target='_blank' in anchor tags, allowing attackers to access window.opener for the original page when opening links. This is commonly used for phishing attacks.
Recommendation
No fix is currently available. Consider using an alternative package until a fix is made available.
CWEs
- CWE-1022 · Use of Web Link to Untrusted Target with window.opener Access
