## Impact Nuxt server islands accept props via the endpoint. When the application has a server island component that forwards props into Vue's dynamic component resolution ( , , or ), an attacker can inject a key into the island props to achieve server-side remote code execution in the Nitro process. Vue's runtime template compiler compiles and executes the attacker-controlled in the server process. The same primitive also works on the client side if is explicitly enabled. Some component libraries expose a polymorphic / prop that forwards its value into ; (via ) is a widely used example. An application is affected if such a component receives the attacker-controlled value. Note this does not require the island author to explicitly forward a prop: island props that the island component does not declare fall through as attributes onto its single root element (standard Vue attribute inheritance), so an island whose root is a polymorphic component receives the attacker's value implicitly. These libraries are not themselves vulnerable; they are noted only because they commonly provide the dynamic-component sink. ## Common configurations that satisfy the preconditions The library below is not itself vulnerable; it is noted because it commonly provides the dynamic-component sink an application might inadvertently expose. - ** ** (via its underlying ** ** primitives) exposes a polymorphic / prop that is forwarded into Vue's dynamic-component resolution. Installing does not by itself register any component as a server island. Exploitation requires the application to define an island component (a file) whose rendered output puts the attacker-controlled value on such a component's / prop; the attacker-controlled is then compiled and executed. Because undeclared island props fall through as attributes to the single root, this can happen without any explicit binding: an island whose root is a / component is enough. An example vulnerable island (the value falls through to , no ex
