Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: utils-extend version 1.0.8

Description: The issue allows an attacker to introduce or modify properties within the global prototype chain through the lib.extend entry function, causing a denial of service (DoS) as the minimum consequence. This is achieved by supplying a payload with an Object.prototype setter.

Recommendations: For version 1.0.8, consider disabling the lib.extend function as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the lib.extend function to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the Object.prototype setter in the affected function until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
