SCA: security update for handlebars (GHSA-p8wg-vrv2-v86f)
critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473853
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Handlebars provides the power necessary to let users build semantic templates. From 4.0.0 until 4.7.10,
Handlebars lookupProperty returns Function.prototype.constructor before applying the prototype-access deny
list because constructor is an own property of Function.prototype. When an attacker can render a
controlled template with allowProtoMethodsByDefault enabled and an accessible function in the template
context, the template can traverse from that function through its prototype to Function.prototype and then
obtain the Function constructor through the own-property bypass. This permits attacker-controlled
JavaScript to execute with the server application's privileges. This issue is fixed in version 4.7.10.
(CVE-2026-106445)
Solution
Update the handlebars library and its related packages to version 4.7.10 or later.See Also
