Babel vulnerable to arbitrary code execution when compiling specifically crafted malicious code
Using Babel to compile code that was specifically crafted by an attacker can lead to arbitrary code execution during compilation, when using plugins that rely on the path.evaluate()
or path.evaluateTruthy()
internal Babel methods.
Known affected plugins are:
@babel/plugin-transform-runtime
@babel/preset-env
when using its useBuiltIns
option@babel/helper-define-polyfill-provider
, such as babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs3
, babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs2
, babel-plugin-polyfill-es-shims
, babel-plugin-polyfill-regenerator
No other plugins under the @babel/
namespace are impacted, but third-party plugins might be.
Users that only compile trusted code are not impacted.
The vulnerability has been fixed in @babel/traverse@7.23.2
.
Babel 6 does not receive security fixes anymore (see Babel's security policy), hence there is no patch planned for babel-traverse@6
.
@babel/traverse
to v7.23.2 or higher. You can do this by deleting it from your package manager's lockfile and re-installing the dependencies. @babel/core
>=7.23.2 will automatically pull in a non-vulnerable version.@babel/traverse
and are using one of the affected packages mentioned above, upgrade them to their latest version to avoid triggering the vulnerable code path in affected @babel/traverse
versions:
@babel/plugin-transform-runtime
v7.23.2@babel/preset-env
v7.23.2@babel/helper-define-polyfill-provider
v0.4.3babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs2

v0.5.3Command Injection in lodash
lodash
versions prior to 4.17.21 are vulnerable to Command Injection via the template function.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash
before 4.17.11 are vulnerable to prototype pollution.
The vulnerable functions are 'defaultsDeep', 'merge', and 'mergeWith' which allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object
via {constructor: {prototype: {...}}}
causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.11 or later.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash
before 4.17.5 are vulnerable to prototype pollution.
The vulnerable functions are 'defaultsDeep', 'merge', and 'mergeWith' which allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object
via __proto__
causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.5 or later.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash
before 4.17.12 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The function defaultsDeep
allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object
via {constructor: {prototype: {...}}}
causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.12 or later.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash prior to 4.17.19 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The functions pick
, set
, setWith
, update
, updateWith
, and zipObjectDeep
allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object if the property identifiers are user-supplied. Being affected by this issue requires manipulating objects based on user-provided property values or arrays.
This vulnerability causes the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects and may lead to Denial of Service or Code Execution under specific circumstances.
