Versions of the package dash-core-components before 2.13.0; all versions of the
package dash-core-components; versions of the package dash before 2.15.0; all
versions of the package dash-html-components; versions of the package
dash-html-components before 2.0.16 are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS)
when the href of the a tag is controlled by an adversary. An authenticated
attacker who stores a view that exploits this vulnerability could steal the
data that's visible to another user who opens that view - not just the data
already included on the page, but they could also, in theory, make additional
requests and access other data accessible to this user. In some cases, they
could also steal the access tokens of that user, which would allow the attacker
to act as that user, including viewing other apps and resources hosted on the
same server.

**Note:**

This is only exploitable in Dash apps that include some mechanism to store user
input to be reloaded by a different user.
