AWS Amplify Studio Bug: When Code Generation Turns Into Code Detonation!
AWS Amplify Studio’s amplify-codegen-ui had a hiccup with input validation. A user could execute arbitrary JavaScript, potentially turning your app into a digital circus. The fix? Upgrade to version 2.20.3 and ensure your code is as patched as your favorite quilt. Stay secure, folks!
