Package : node-lodash Version : 4.17.21+dfsg+~cs8.31.173-1+deb11u1 CVE ID : CVE-2025-13465 CVE-2026-2950 CVE-2026-4800 Debian Bug : 1126265

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in node-lodash, a Node.js module providing utility functions for common programming tasks.

CVE-2025-13465

Prototype pollution in the _.unset and _.omit functions. A crafted property path could be used to delete properties from built-in prototypes (such as Object.prototype), leading to availability and integrity issues.

CVE-2026-2950

An incomplete fix for CVE-2025-13465. The initial guard only handled string key members and the literal constructor.prototype sequence, so it could be bypassed using array-wrapped path segments (for example [['constructor'], ['keys']]), via constructor static methods, or from primitive roots, again allowing deletion of properties on shared built-in prototypes.

CVE-2026-4800

Code injection in the _.template function. An incomplete fix for CVE-2021-23337: the variable option was validated but the imports option key names were not. Untrusted input passed as imports key names could inject default-parameter expressions that execute arbitrary code at template compilation time via the same Function() constructor sink.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 4.17.21+dfsg+~cs8.31.173-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your node-lodash packages.
