September 26, 2024

A DOM Clobbering vulnerability has been discovered in layui that can lead to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) on web pages where attacker-controlled HTML elements (e.g., img tags with unsanitized name attributes) are present.

It’s worth noting that we’ve identifed similar issues in other popular client-side libraries like Webpack (CVE-2024-43788) and Vite (CVE-2024-45812), which might serve as valuable references.
