How to fix?

Upgrade org.webjars.npm:nuxt to version 3.21.10, 4.5.1 or higher.

Overview

org.webjars.npm:nuxt is a Nuxt banner

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code ('Unsafe Reflection') via the as prop in server island components that forward attacker-controlled values into dynamic component resolution. An attacker can instantiate any globally-registered Vue component or native HTML element by supplying a crafted value, potentially leading to unauthorized access or manipulation of application behavior.

Note: This is only exploitable if a server island component forwards untrusted input into a dynamic component path, either explicitly or via attribute fallthrough when the island's root is a polymorphic component.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by declaring the props an island accepts, setting inheritAttrs: false on the component, avoiding forwarding untrusted props into dynamic component resolution, and mapping untrusted discriminators through a closed allowlist of imported component definitions instead of passing the raw prop value.
