Security Bulletin
Summary
Carbon Charts versions prior to v1.27.8 include a vulnerable version of React Router that is susceptible to five security vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-59057, CVE-2025-68470, CVE-2026-21884, CVE-2026-22029, CVE-2026-22030) with severity ranging from Medium to High (CVSS 6.1 to 8.2). These vulnerabilities include cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks that could allow attackers to compromise user sessions, and information disclosure issues that could expose sensitive routing information. Carbon Charts v1.27.8 and later versions have been updated to a patched version of React Router that remediates all vulnerabilities. Customers using Carbon Charts React components should upgrade immediately.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2025-59057
DESCRIPTION: React Router is a router for React. In @remix-run/react versions 1.15.0 through 2.17.0. and react-router versions 7.0.0 through 7.8.2, a XSS vulnerability exists in in React Router's meta()/Meta APIs in Framework Mode when generating script:ld+json tags which could allow arbitrary JavaScript execution during SSR if untrusted content is used to generate the tag. There is no impact if the application is being used in Declarative Mode (BrowserRouter) or Data Mode (createBrowserRouter/RouterProvider). This issue has been patched in @remix-run/react version 2.17.1 and react-router version 7.9.0.
CWE: CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVSS Source: security-advisories@github.com
CVSS Base score: 7.6
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2025-68470
DESCRIPTION: React Router is a router for React. In versions 6.0.0 through 6.30.1 and 7.0.0 through 7.9.5, an attacker-supplied path can be crafted so that when a React Router application navigates to it via navigate(), Link, or redirect(), the app performs a navigation/redirect to an external URL. This is only an issue if you are passing untrusted content into navigation paths in your application code. This issue has been patched in versions 6.30.2 and 7.9.6.
CWE: CWE-601: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')
CVSS Source: security-advisories@github.com
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2026-21884
DESCRIPTION: React Router is a router for React. In @remix-run/react version prior to 2.17.3. and react-router 7.0.0 through 7.11.0, a XSS vulnerability exists in in React Router's ScrollRestoration API in Framework Mode when using the getKey/storageKey props during Server-Side Rendering which could allow arbitrary JavaScript execution during SSR if untrusted content is used to generate the keys. There is no impact if server-side rendering in Framework Mode is disabled, or if Declarative Mode (BrowserRouter) or Data Mode (createBrowserRouter/RouterProvider) is being used. This issue has been patched in @remix-run/react version 2.17.3 and react-router version 7.12.0.
CWE: CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVSS Source: security-advisories@github.com
CVSS Base score: 8.2
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2026-22029
DESCRIPTION: React Router is a router for React. In @remix-run/router version prior to 1.23.2. and react-router 7.0.0 through 7.11.0, React Router (and Remix v1/v2) SPA open navigation redirects originating from loaders or actions in Framework Mode, Data Mode, or the unstable RSC modes can result in unsafe URLs causing unintended javascript execution on the client. This is only an issue if you are creating redirect paths from untrusted content or via an open redirect. There is no impact if Declarative Mode (BrowserRouter) is being used. This issue has been patched in @remix-run/router version 1.23.2 and react-router version 7.12.0.
CWE: CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2026-22030
DESCRIPTION: React Router is a router for React. In @remix-run/server-runtime version prior to 2.17.3. and react-router 7.0.0 through 7.11.0, React Router (or Remix v2) is vulnerable to CSRF attacks on document POST requests to UI routes when using server-side route action handlers in Framework Mode, or when using React Server Actions in the new unstable RSC modes. There is no impact if Declarative Mode (BrowserRouter) or Data Mode (createBrowserRouter/RouterProvider) is being used. This issue has been patched in @remix-run/server-runtime version 2.17.3 and react-router version 7.12.0.

According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES ""AS IS"" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
