All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.1.2 of the package
Denial of Service in js-yaml
Versions of js-yaml prior to 3.13.0 are vulnerable to Denial of Service. By parsing a carefully-crafted YAML file, the node process stalls and may exhaust system resources leading to a Denial of Service.
Upgrade to version 3.13.0.
Code Injection in js-yaml
Versions of js-yaml prior to 3.13.1 are vulnerable to Code Injection. The load() function may execute arbitrary code injected through a malicious YAML file. Objects that have toString as key, JavaScript code as value and are used as explicit mapping keys allow attackers to execute the supplied code through the load() function. The safeLoad() function is unaffected.
An example payload is
{ toString: !<tag:yaml.org,2002:js/function> 'function (){return Date.now()}' } : 1
which returns the object
{
"1553107949161": 1
}
Upgrade to version 3.13.1.
js-yaml has prototype pollution in merge (<<)
In js-yaml 4.1.0, 4.0.0, and 3.14.1 and below, it's possible for an attacker to modify the prototype of the result of a parsed yaml document via prototype pollution (__proto__). All users who parse untrusted yaml documents may be impacted.
Problem is patched in js-yaml 4.1.1 and 3.14.2.
You can protect against this kind of attack on the server by using node --disable-proto=delete or deno (in Deno, pollution protection is on by default).
