Code execution via unsafe prototype path write
Published Jun 17, 2024 · Updated Aug 22, 2024
Prototype pollution in cdr0 @cdr0/sg 1.0.10 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted property paths. The setOn function in ref.js follows attacker-controlled dot-separated paths and writes through proto or constructor.prototype, modifying Object.prototype without blocking special keys. Exploitation requires a consuming application to pass an attacker-controlled path to setOn; the demonstrated primitive changes inherited properties, while code execution depends on application logic that uses the polluted values.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
