Application disruption via unsanitized nested CSV headers
Published Sep 24, 2025 · Updated Sep 24, 2025
Prototype pollution in csvtojson before 2.0.13 allows remote attackers to alter Object.prototype via crafted CSV headers. The parser_jsonarray path builder treats nested header segments such as proto as ordinary properties and writes attacker values into the base Object prototype. Exploitation requires an application to parse untrusted CSV data; resulting prototype changes can crash or hang the process or alter application behavior.
