Arbitrary code execution via inherited locals properties
Published Dec 10, 2024 · Updated Dec 10, 2024
Code injection in Peerigon angular-expressions before 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted expressions. When compile() receives both scope and locals, ASTCompiler resolves inherited locals properties without an own-property check, so proto.constructor exposes the Function constructor. Exploitation requires an application to evaluate attacker-controlled expressions with a nonempty locals argument; successful payloads run with the host process's privileges.

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.
