Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Incorrect Comparison (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45133)

The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists in '@babel/traverse' and `babel-traverse`. A local user can execute arbitrary code during compilation, when using plugins that rely on the `path.evaluate()`or `path.evaluateTruthy()` internal Babel methods.

2) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23446)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing regular expressions in the Handsontable.helper.isNumeric function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

3) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25883)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application via the new Range function and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

4) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37599)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input passed via the resourcePath variable to  interpolateName() function in interpolateName.js. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

5) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37603)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing URL within the interpolateName() function in interpolateName.js. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

6) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37601)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform prototype pollution attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the parseQuery() function in parseQuery.js. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript code.

7) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-46175)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the JSON5.parse() function. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary script code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
