NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream opensearch-dashboards-2-fips package and not the opensearch-dashboards-2-fips package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in npm-serialize-javascript. The vulnerability occurs because the serialize-javascript module does not properly sanitize certain inputs, such as regex or other JavaScript object types, allowing an attacker to inject malicious code. This code could be executed when deserialized by a web browser, causing Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This issue is critical in environments where serialized data is sent to web clients, potentially compromising the security of the website or web application using this package.
