Please see the last four times this question has been asked https://github.com/mdx-js/mdx/issues?q=is%3Aissue+trim+is%3Aclosed+vulnerable

To reiterate:

  1. This is not an exploit, it is a potential slow down. remark-parse 9, react-markdown 6, and mdx 2/xdm address this, and provide other performance improvements.
    https://overreacted.io/npm-audit-broken-by-design provides some additional insights into why npm audit and snyk, while useful, can also be broken for packages like react and mdx, flagging non-issues.
  2. MDX version 1 cannot be patched (#1548 (comment))
  3. MDX version 2 is available as a release candidate and has the dependency updated, https://github.com/wooorm/xdm also has the fix.
