jsx-slack is a library for building JSON objects for Slack Block Kit surfaces from JSX. In versions prior to 4.5.1 users are vulnerable to a regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) attack. If attacker can put a lot of JSX elements into `

` tag, an internal regular expression for escaping characters may consume an excessive amount of computing resources. jsx-slack v4.5.1 has patched to a regex for escaping blockquote characters. Users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible.

GHSA-55xv-f85c-248q — Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in jsx-slack

2026-10-13T07:08:33.291020+00:00

Affected: npm: jsx-slack

jsx-slack v4.5.1 and earlier versions are vulnerable to a regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) attack.

### Impact

If attacker can put a lot of JSX elements into `

` tag, an internal regular expression for escaping characters may consume an excessive amount of computing resources.

```javascript /** @jsxImportSource jsx-slack */ import { Section } from 'jsx-slack'

console.log(

{[...Array(40)].map((_, i) => (
{i + 1}
))}

) ```

### Patches

_See also: https://github.com/yhatt/jsx-slack/security/advisories/GHSA-hp68-xhvj-x6j6_

jsx-slack v4.5.2 has updated regular expressions to prevent catastrophic backtracking.

jsx-slack v4.5.1 also had patched a workaround. It has no problems to contents with ASCII characters, but _still vulnerable to contents with multibyte characters_. (https://github.com/yhatt/jsx-slack/commit/36e4a10405e4c7745333e245fcc5029c02c7065d)
