CVE-2026-8657
HIGHJsondiffpatch < 0.7.6 - Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes ('Prototype Pollution')
Title source: ruleDescription
Versions of the package jsondiffpatch before 0.7.6 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution via the jsondiffpatch.patch() and jsondiffpatch/formatters/jsonpatch.patch() APIs. An attacker can perform prototype pollution by supplying crafted delta or JSON Patch documents, as attacker-controlled property names and path segments are used to traverse and modify objects without restricting access to special properties like __proto__ or constructor.prototype, allowing modification of Object.prototype.
