CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:Hprotobufjs compiles protobuf definitions into JavaScript (JS) functions. Prior to 7.5.6 and 8.0.2, protobufjs used plain objects with inherited prototypes for internal type lookup tables used by generated encode and decode functions. If Object.prototype had already been polluted, those lookup tables could resolve attacker-controlled inherited properties as valid protobuf type information. This could cause attacker-controlled strings to be emitted into generated JavaScript code. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.5.6 and 8.0.2.
Six vulnerabilities, dubbed Proto6, have been identified in protobuf.js, a JavaScript implementation of Protocol Buffers. These flaws could lead to remote code execution (RCE) and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, primari…
