QID 980065: Nodejs (npm) Security Update for object-path (GHSA-cwx2-736x-mf6w)

Security update has been released for object-path to fix the vulnerability.

Note: The preceding description block is extracted directly from the security advisory. Using automation, we have attempted to clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

A prototype pollution vulnerability has been found in `object-path` <= 0.11.4 affecting the `set()` method. The vulnerability is limited to the `includeInheritedProps` mode (if version >= 0.11.0 is used), which has to be explicitly enabled by creating a new instance of `object-path` and setting the option `includeInheritedProps: true`, or by using the default `withInheritedProps` instance. The default operating mode is not affected by the vulnerability if version >= 0.11.0 is used. Any usage of `set()` in versions < 0.11.0 is vulnerable.

CVSS V3 rated as Critical - 9.8 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as High - 6.8 severity.

Solution

Upgrade to version >= 0.11.5Workaround:
Don't use the `includeInheritedProps: true` options or the `withInheritedProps` instance if using a version >= 0.11.0.
