Flaw in React Native CLI opens dev servers to attacks
What developers must do now?: Developers using @react-native-community/cli (or the bundled cli-server-api) in their React Native projects should check for the vulnerable package version on the npm list. The vulnerability is fixed in version 20.0.0 of cli-server-api, so immediate updating is recommended.The stakes include an attacker remotely executing commands on the victim’s development machine, potentially…
