A fix is available in react-router versions 7.14.1 and 6.30.4. Users should upgrade to these versions or later to remediate the vulnerability. Applications using Declarative Mode (<BrowserRouter>) are not affected by this issue.
Description
React Router is a router for React. In versions 7.0.0 through 7.14.0 and 6.7.0 through 6.30.3, certain URLs passed to the redirect function can trigger an open redirect to an external domain due to path values starting with // being reinterpreted as protocol-relative URLs. The level of impact depends on the validation done by the application prior to returning the redirect. This does not impact applications using Declarative Mode (<BrowserRouter>). This is patched in versions 7.14.1 and 6.30.4.
