EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 90% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Repostat is a React component to fetch and display GitHub repository info. Prior to version 1.0.1, the RepoCard component is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The vulnerability occurs because the component uses React's dangerouslySetInnerHTML to render the repository name (repo prop) during the loading state without any sanitization. If a developer using this package passes unvalidated user input directly into the repo prop (for example, reading it from a URL query parameter), an attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the user's browser. In version 1.0.1, the use of dangerouslySetInnerHTML has been removed, and the repo prop is now safely rendered using standard React JSX data binding, which automatically escapes HTML entities.
