I tend to agree. Cloudflare and Vercel were able to mitigate in the form of WAF rules, but it's not immediately clear what a user or vendor can do to implement mitigations themselves other than updating their dependencies (quickly!).

IMO the CVE announcement could have been better handled. This was a level 10. If other mitigations can are viable and you know about them, you have a responsibility to disclose them in order to best protect the safety of the billions of users of React applications.

I wonder how many applications are still vulnerable.
