Hi team,

During a review using Semgrep, I identified a critical security vulnerability affecting this repository's development dependencies.

Issue: vitest@2.1.1 is affected by CVE-2025-24964, which allows Remote Code Execution (RCE) via Cross-site WebSocket Hijacking (CSWSH) when the Vitest API server is running and a developer visits a malicious website.

Severity: Critical — no origin validation allows arbitrary WebSocket connections to trigger test runner commands and potentially execute arbitrary code on a dev machine.

Likelihood: Medium to High. Many dev setups run vitest --watch or enable its UI/API server by default. Exploitation only requires a developer to visit a malicious website while the test server is active.

Recommended Fix: Upgrade to vitest >= 2.1.9 (or preferably 3.0.5) where this issue has been patched.
