DescriptionCVE.org
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.
AnalysisAI
Open redirect in React Router's programmatic redirect() function allows unauthenticated remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary external domains by supplying path values beginning with //, which browsers interpret as protocol-relative (scheme-relative) URLs. Affected are applications in the v7 series (7.0.0-7.14.0) and v6 series (6.7.0-6.30.3) that expose user-influenced input to redirect() without validating the path prefix. No public exploit identified at time of analysis - CVSS 4.0 supplemental metric E:U (Unreported) confirms no known active exploitation - but the technique is trivially constructible from the advisory description alone, and patched releases 7.14.1 and 6.30.4 are available.
Technical ContextAI
React Router (cpe:2.3:a:remix-run:react-router:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a widely deployed client-side and server-side routing library for React applications, maintained under the remix-run GitHub organization. The flaw exists in the programmatic redirect() helper API. Under RFC 3986, a URI reference beginning with // is a protocol-relative (scheme-relative) reference - browsers resolve it by prepending the current page's scheme (e.g., https:), treating //evil.com as https://evil.com. React Router does not canonicalize or reject path arguments that carry this prefix before issuing the HTTP redirect response, enabling the browser to navigate to an entirely attacker-controlled origin. This is a textbook CWE-601 (URL Redirection to Untrusted Site / Open Redirect) root cause. Critically, the flaw is scoped exclusively to the programmatic redirect() API; applications using only Declarative Mode (<BrowserRouter> with JSX route definitions) perform no equivalent server-side redirect dispatch and are explicitly unaffected per the advisory.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patches are available: upgrade to React Router 7.14.1 for v7 installations or 6.30.4 for v6 installations - these are the confirmed fix versions per the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-2j2x-hqr9-3h42. If an immediate upgrade cannot be scheduled, the primary compensating control is application-level input validation: before passing any user-influenced value to redirect(), strip or reject path strings beginning with // or containing a scheme delimiter (e.g., ://). A strict destination allowlist - permitting only known-safe relative paths or explicitly enumerated absolute URLs - is the most robust workaround and avoids the pitfall of incomplete prefix-stripping heuristics. Note that this validation must be implemented in application code, not the library, as React Router performs no canonicalization prior to redirect dispatch. Side effect: overly aggressive sanitization of // prefixes could inadvertently interfere with legitimate protocol-relative asset references if those strings flow through the same code path - scope the validation narrowly to redirect destinations.
