Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Nov 4, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jan 28, 2023

Package

npm deep-object-diff (npm)

Affected versions

>= 1.1.6, < 1.1.9

Patched versions

1.1.9

Description

deep-object-diff before version 1.1.6 allows an external attacker to edit or add new properties to an object. This is possible because the application does not properly validate incoming JSON keys, thus allowing the __proto__ property to be edited. This issue was fixed in version 1.1.9.
