I think this is not a React bug rather browser difference problem. You can solve it easily with adding a if statement as event function's first line of code: if (e.target.disabled) { return null; }. with this it will not fire the event further. Check the sample code here: http://jsfiddle.net/gttafz9t/6/

Thanks for the report @ocetnik! This issue is present in the latest release (15.4.2) but is resolved in master. You can verify that with [this JSFiddle] which is using a recent build from master.

This was resolved by #5746 which, at the time, contained breaking changes so it was slated for the next major release. There is currently a PR open (#8575) that makes it non-breaking so we can backport it to 15.x and release it in a minor release.

I'm going to be reviewing #8575 soon and, should all go well, would expect it to land in the next minor release 🤞

@Quanthir React does a number of normalizations for onChange events to make it easier to deal with. Part of that is addressing browser inconsistencies, so making this work in IE11 like it does elsewhere would be within the scope of what React provides as far as the event system goes.
