Lodash < 4.17.12 Prototype Pollution

critical Web App Scanning Plugin ID 113008

Synopsis

Lodash < 4.17.12 Prototype Pollution

Description

According to its self-reported version number, Lodash is prior to 4.17.12. It is, therefore, affected by a prototype pollution vulnerability in the function defaultsDeep which could be tricked into adding or modifying properties of Object.prototype using a constructor payload.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Lodash version 4.17.12 or later.
