Summary

depath and cool-path vulnerable to Prototype Pollution via `set()` Method

Details

janryWang products depath v1.0.6 and cool-path v1.1.2 were discovered to contain a prototype pollution via the set() method at setIn (lib/index.js:90). This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via injecting arbitrary properties.

Severity

8.9 (High)
