  - React Router is a router for React. In versions 7.0.0 through 7.14.1, when using Framework Mode, a
    combination of steps could potentially allow unauthorized remote code execution (RCE) through external
    requests. This attack requires the application code to have an existing prototype pollution vulnerability,
    which can then be leveraged in a 2-step attack where the second step triggers unauthorized RCE on the
    remote server. This does not impact applications using Declarative Mode (`<BrowserRouter>`) or Data Mode
    (`createBrowserRouter/<RouterProvider>`). This is patched in version 7.14.2. (CVE-2026-42211)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
