CWE-471

Due to the formatting logic of the "console.table()" function it was not safe to allow user controlled input to be passed to the "properties" parameter while simultaneously passing a plain object with at least one property as the first parameter, which could be "__proto__". The prototype pollution has very limited control, in that it only allows an empty string to be assigned to numerical keys of the object prototype.Node.js >= 12.22.9, >= 14.18.3, >= 16.13.2, and >= 17.3.1 use a null protoype for the object these properties are being assigned to.

hoek node module before 4.2.0 and 5.0.x before 5.0.3 suffers from a Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) vulnerability via 'merge' and 'applyToDefaults' functions, which allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of "Object" via __proto__, causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.

Flaw in input validation in npm package utils-extend version 1.0.8 and earlier may allow prototype pollution attack that may result in remote code execution or denial of service of applications using utils-extend.

Prototype pollution vulnerability in dot-prop npm package versions before 4.2.1 and versions 5.x before 5.1.1 allows an attacker to add arbitrary properties to JavaScript language constructs such as objects.

lodash node module before 4.17.5 suffers from a Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) vulnerability via defaultsDeep, merge, and mergeWith functions, which allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of "Object" via __proto__, causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.

This affects all versions of package immer.

npm package systeminformation before version 4.30.5 is vulnerable to Prototype Pollution leading to Command Injection. The issue was fixed with a rewrite of shell sanitations to avoid prototyper pollution problems. The issue is fixed in version 4.30.5. If you cannot upgrade, be sure to check or sanitize service parameter strings that are passed to si.inetChecksite().

A prototype pollution vulnerability has been found in `object-path` <= 0.11.4 affecting the `set()` method. The vulnerability is limited to the `includeInheritedProps` mode (if version >= 0.11.0 is used), which has to be explicitly enabled by creating a new instance of `object-path` and setting the option `includeInheritedProps: true`, or by using the default `withInheritedProps` instance. The default operating mode is not affected by the vulnerability if version >= 0.11.0 is used. Any usage of `set()` in versions < 0.11.0 is vulnerable. The issue is fixed in object-path version 0.11.5 As a workaround, don't use the `includeInheritedProps: true` options or the `withInheritedProps` instance if using a version >= 0.11.0.

The package vm2 before 3.9.10 are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution due to the usage of prototype lookup for the WeakMap.prototype.set method. Exploiting this vulnerability leads to access to a host object and a sandbox compromise.

Highlight.js is a syntax highlighter written in JavaScript. Highlight.js versions before 9.18.2 and 10.1.2 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. A malicious HTML code block can be crafted that will result in prototype pollution of the base object's prototype during highlighting. If you allow users to insert custom HTML code blocks into your page/app via parsing Markdown code blocks (or similar) and do not filter the language names the user can provide you may be vulnerable. The pollution should just be harmless data but this can cause problems for applications not expecting these properties to exist and can result in strange behavior or application crashes, i.e. a potential DOS vector. If your website or application does not render user provided data it should be unaffected. Versions 9.18.2 and 10.1.2 and newer include fixes for this vulnerability. If you are using version 7 or 8 you are encouraged to upgrade to a newer release.

Prototype pollution vulnerability in json8-merge-patch npm package < 1.0.3 may allow attackers to inject or modify methods and properties of the global object constructor.

An issue in OneTrust SDK v.6.33.0 allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service via the Object.setPrototypeOf, __proto__, and Object.assign components. NOTE: this is disputed by the Supplier who does not agree it is a prototype pollution vulnerability.

A logic flaw in Ray-Ban® Stories device software allowed some parameters like video capture duration limit to be modified through the Facebook View application. This issue affected versions of device software before 2107460.6810.0.

Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) in RDT400 in SICK APU allows an unprivileged remote attacker to make the site unable to load necessary strings via changing file paths using HTTP requests.

A branch/tag name confusion in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions prior to 15.2.5, 15.3 prior to 15.3.4, and 15.4 prior to 15.4.1 allows an attacker to manipulate pages where the content of the default branch would be expected.

The Cypher component in Neo4j 5.0.0 through 5.18 mishandles IMMUTABLE privileges in some situations where an attacker already has admin access.

An attacker could prepare a specially crafted project file that, if opened, would attempt to connect to the cloud and trigger a man in the middle (MiTM) attack. This could allow an attacker to obtain credentials and take over the user’s cloud account.

era-compiler-vyper is the EraVM Vyper compiler for zkSync Era, a layer 2 rollup that uses zero-knowledge proofs to scale Ethereum. Prior to era-compiler-vype version 1.3.10, a bug prevented the initialization of the first immutable variable for Vyper contracts meeting certain criteria. The problem arises when there is a String or Array with more 256-bit words allocated than initialized. It results in the second word’s index unset, that is effectively set to 0, so the first immutable value with the actual 0 index is overwritten in the ImmutableSimulator. Version 1.3.10 fixes this issue by setting all indexes in advance. The problem will go away, but it will get more expensive if the user allocates a lot of uninitialized space, e.g. `String[4096]`. Upgrading and redeploying affected contracts is the only way of working around the issue.

The External Visitor Manager portal of HID’s SAFE versions 5.8.0 through 5.11.3 are vulnerable to manipulation within web fields in the application programmable interface (API). An attacker could log in using account credentials available through a request generated by an internal user and then manipulate the visitor-id within the web API to access the personal data of other users. There is no limit on the number of requests that can be made to the HID SAFE Web Server, so an attacker could also exploit this vulnerability to create a denial-of-service condition.

An issue was discovered in Exasol JDBC driver before 24.2.1 (2024-12-10). Attackers can inject malicious parameters into the JDBC URL, triggering JNDI injection during the process when the JDBC Driver uses this URL to connect to the database. This can further lead to remote code execution.

Lura and KrakenD-CE versions older than v2.0.2 and KrakenD-EE versions older than v2.0.0 do not sanitize URL parameters correctly, allowing a malicious user to alter the backend URL defined for a pipe when remote users send crafty URL requests. The vulnerability does not affect KrakenD itself, but the consumed backend might be vulnerable.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Remote Connect Server (All versions < V3.0 SP2). The status provided by the syslog clients managed by the affected software can be manipulated by an unauthenticated attacker in the same network of the affected system.

IBM QRadar WinCollect Agent 10.0.0 through 10.1.12 could allow a remote attacker to inject XML data into parameter values due to improper input validation of assumed immutable data.

A vulnerability has been identified in SINEMA Remote Connect Server (All versions < V3.0 SP2). An unauthenticated attacker in the same network of the affected system could manipulate certain parameters and set a valid user of the affected software as invalid (or vice-versa).

IBM Aspera Faspex 5.0.0 through 5.0.12 could allow an authenticated user to obtain sensitive information or perform unauthorized actions on behalf of another user due to improper protection of assumed immutable data.

Nautobot is a Network Source of Truth and Network Automation Platform. Prior to 2.4.33 and 3.1.2, a user with access to add/change a GitRepository record could use the REST API to directly set the current_head field on the record, which was not intended to be user-editable. Doing so could cause Nautobot's local clone(s) of the relevant repository to checkout a commit other than the latest commit on the specified branch (resulting in misleading state), or potentially to be unable to make use of the repository at all (until manually remediated) due to the current_head pointing to a nonexistent commit hash or malformed value. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.4.33 and 3.1.2.

Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) vulnerability in Drupal Translate Drupal with GTranslate allows Resource Location Spoofing. This issue affects Translate Drupal with GTranslate: from 0.0.0 before 3.0.5.

: Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) vulnerability in ABB ANC, ABB ANC-L, ABB ANC-mini.This issue affects ANC: through 1.1.4; ANC-L: through 1.1.4; ANC-mini: through 1.1.4.

In affected versions of TensorFlow the tf.raw_ops.ImmutableConst operation returns a constant tensor created from a memory mapped file which is assumed immutable. However, if the type of the tensor is not an integral type, the operation crashes the Python interpreter as it tries to write to the memory area. If the file is too small, TensorFlow properly returns an error as the memory area has fewer bytes than what is needed for the tensor it creates. However, as soon as there are enough bytes, the above snippet causes a segmentation fault. This is because the allocator used to return the buffer data is not marked as returning an opaque handle since the needed virtual method is not overridden. This is fixed in versions 1.15.5, 2.0.4, 2.1.3, 2.2.2, 2.3.2, and 2.4.0.

IBM Security Verify Bridge 1.0.0 through 1.0.15 could allow a local privileged user to overwrite files due to excessive privileges granted to the agent. which could also cause a denial of service.

Apps developed with Google Play Services SDK incorrectly had the mutability flag set to PendingIntents that were passed to the Notification service. As Google Play services SDK is so widely used, this bug affects many applications. For an application affected, this bug will let the attacker, gain the access to all non-exported providers and/or gain the access to other providers the victim has permissions. We recommend upgrading to version 18.0.2 of the Play Service SDK as well as rebuilding and redeploying apps.

To optimize client-side bootstrap in Server-Side Rendered (SSR) environments, Angular supports **Hydration** via `provideClientHydration()`. During SSR, Angular serializes the application's runtime state (such as cached `HttpClient` responses) and outputs it into the HTML stream as a `<script>` tag with a predictable identifier: ```html <script type="application/json" id="ng-state"> {"some-api-url": {"body": ...}} </script> ```` During client bootstrap, Angular recovers this state by looking up the element via `document.getElementById('ng-state')` and parsing its text content. Because the DOM element lookup for the state container is predictable and relies solely on the ID selector (`ng-state`), it is susceptible to **DOM Clobbering**. If the application binds untrusted user input or CMS content to element properties such as `id` (e.g., `<div [id]="userInput">` or `<a id="ng-state">`) *before* the genuine `<script>` tag is parsed by the browser, the attacker-controlled element takes precedence in the DOM lookup. During hydration, when Angular calls `document.getElementById('ng-state')`, the browser returns the attacker's clobbered element. Angular then attempts to parse the text content or attributes of this clobbered element as JSON. ### Impact By clobbering the state element, the attacker can inject a custom JSON payload into Angular's `TransferState` cache. The most critical exploitation vector is poisoning the **HTTP Transfer Cache**. 1. The attacker injects a clobbered `ng-state` element containing custom JSON. 2. The JSON maps a key (representing a target API endpoint URL) to a malicious payload of the attacker's choice. 3. During client-side initialization, Angular's `HttpClient` checks `TransferState` before making requests. Finding the poisoned key, `HttpClient` returns the forged response instantly instead of requesting the genuine backend API. Depending on how the application processes and renders the affected API response, this can lead to: * **DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)** if poisoned fields are rendered using unsafe bindings. * **Privilege Escalation** by spoofing user info or session details retrieved from poisoned API payloads. * **UI Hijacking** and redirection by spoofing configuration endpoints. ### Patched Versions * 22.0.1 * 21.2.17 * 20.3.25 ### Workarounds If you cannot immediately update to a patched Angular version, apply the following workarounds: #### A. Avoid Dynamic/User-Controlled IDs Avoid binding raw user-supplied values or dynamic CMS IDs directly to element attributes. If dynamic IDs are required, sanitize them or prepend a static safe prefix: ```html <!-- Vulnerable Pattern --> <div [id]="userControlledInput">...</div> <!-- Mitigated Pattern --> <div [id]="'safe-prefix-' + userControlledInput">...</div> ``` #### B. Configure a Custom Application ID Declaring a unique, non-predictable `APP_ID` changes the ID suffix of the state element, making it harder for attackers to predict and target: ```ts // app.config.ts import { APP_ID } from '@angular/core'; import { provideClientHydration } from '@angular/platform-browser'; export const appConfig = { providers: [ { provide: APP_ID, useValue: 'unique-obfuscated-app-id' }, provideClientHydration() ] }; ``` This changes the state element lookup ID from `ng-state` to `unique-obfuscated-app-id-state`.
