Summary
"Unsanitized input from the request URL flows into end, where it is used to render an HTML page returned to the user. This may result in a Cross-Site Scripting attack (XSS)."
Details
Source of potentially tainted data is in packages/kit/src/exports/vite/dev/index.js, line 437. This potentially tainted data is passed through a number of steps (which I could detail if you'd like) all the way down to line 91 in packages/kit/src/exports/vite/utils.js, which performs an operation that Snyk believes an attacker shouldn't be allowed to manipulate.
Another source of potentially tainted data (according to Snyk) comes from packages/kit/src/exports/vite/utils.js, line 30, col 30 (i.e., the url property of req). This potentially tainted data is passed through a number of steps (which I could detail if you'd like) all the way down line 91 in packages/kit/src/exports/vite/utils.js, which performs an operation that Snyk believes an attacker shouldn't be allowed to manipulate.

Impact
Little to none. The Vite development is not exposed to the network by default. And even if someone were able to trick a developer into executing an XSS against themselves, a development database should not have any sensitive data.
The vulnerability can be exploited over a local network, such as Wi-Fi. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker does not need any special privileges or access rights. The attacker needs the user to perform some action, like clicking a link. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system.
No exploitation activity has been observed at this time. Continue routine monitoring.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
