A critical vulnerability in React Server Components called React2Shell has triggered a massive wave of cyberattacks, with over 50 organizations confirmed compromised across the US, Asia, South America, and the Middle East. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency moved up the patching deadline to Friday due to escalating threats. Attackers from nation-states to cybercriminals are exploiting this "one click, game over" flaw that affects popular frameworks like Next.js. Shadowserver found over 165,000 vulnerable IP addresses, with nearly two-thirds in the US. Half remain unpatched despite active exploitation since Tuesday. Experts compare React2Shell to the devastating Log4Shell vulnerability, warning it's easier to weaponize and harder to detect once compromised. **Source:** [CyberScoop](https://cyberscoop.com/react2shell-attacks-surge-50-victims/)
