Summary
Versions of `quill` prior to 1.3.7 are vulnerable to [Reverse Tabnabbing](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Reverse_Tabnabbing). The package uses `target='_blank'` in anchor tags, allowing attackers to access `window.opener` for the original page when opening links. This is commonly used for phishing attacks.
## Recommendation
No fix is currently available. Consider using an alternative package until a fix is made available.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
