Affected packages

• npm node-red: < 0.18.6 → fixed in 0.18.6

Description

Versions of `node-red` prior to 0.18.6 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The package fails to sanitize the `name` field in new items, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser. Recommendation Upgrade to version 0.18.6 or later.
