Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability documentation explicitly identifies dangerouslySetInnerHTML in textbox.tsx as the vulnerable pattern. This React API bypasses built-in XSS protections by design when used with untrusted input. The CWE-79 classification and multiple independent sources (GitHub Advisory, NVD, VulDB) consistently attribute the vulnerability to this specific function's handling of the 'query' parameter. The high confidence comes from direct mentions in all vulnerability descriptions and alignment with known dangerous React patterns.
