And now I can’t buy potato bread because of peer pressure.

Researchers have found two new vulnerabilities in React Server Components while attempting to exploit the patches last week.
These are new issues, separate from the critical CVE last week. The patch for React2Shell remains effective for the Remote Code Execution exploit.

If you told me that one day the Macy’s Day parade would have a Toy’s R Us float with Lil Jon singing Turn Down for What, I’d never believe you.
