  "summary": "@asymmetric-effort/nogginlessdom vulnerable to ReDoS via user-controlled regex in HTMLInputElement pattern validation",
  "details": "## Summary\n\nThe `HTMLInputElement.checkValidity()` method constructed a `RegExp` directly from the user-controlled `pattern` property without any sanitization or timeout protection. This allowed an attacker to inject a regex with catastrophic backtracking, freezing the event loop.\n\n## Fix\n\nFixed in commit https://github.com/asymmetric-effort/NogginLessDom/commit/25a3cbac665fae5663f8b71c073b80c3152dbe7b on `main`. Added:\n- Pattern length limit (1024 characters)\n- Nested quantifier detection (`hasNestedQuantifiers`) that rejects patterns like `(a+)+` before constructing the regex\n- Patterns exceeding limits are treated as non-matching (safe default)",
