Research direction
Start by tracing the dependency chain from react-scripts:5.0.0 through webpack-dev-server and http-proxy-middleware to http-proxy:1.18.1. Check whether compatible dependency updates remove the CWE-400 vulnerability, then verify the dependency tree no longer contains the vulnerable version and that the project still builds.
