GHSA-CP6Q-959Q-F8RH
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-02 14:44 – Updated: 2026-09-02 14:44Summary
@tiptap/core's public mergeAttributes() helper uses ordinary bracket assignment on keys returned by Object.entries(). An own __proto__ key from JSON therefore invokes the legacy prototype setter on the fresh merged object. The function returns an object whose prototype is attacker-controlled, while Object.keys() and ordinary own-property checks show no attacker attributes.
When that result is used as a ProseMirror DOMOutputSpec attribute object, prosemirror-model's DOMSerializer.renderSpec() enumerates it with for...in and applies inherited values with setAttribute(). In a browser proof, inherited src and onerror values were copied to an <img> and the error handler executed once. This is per-object prototype manipulation; the proof does not modify global Object.prototype.
Root cause
The affected loop is conceptually:
const mergedAttributes = { ...items }
for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(item)) {
const exists = mergedAttributes[key]
// ...
mergedAttributes[key] = value
}
Object.entries(JSON.parse('{"__proto__": {...}}')) includes __proto__. Reading mergedAttributes['__proto__'] resolves the inherited Object.prototype; assigning to the same key invokes Object.prototype.__proto__'s setter and replaces mergedAttributes' prototype.
Browser reproduction
The following shape was tested with exact @tiptap/core 3.29.2 and prosemirror-model 1.25.11:
const input = JSON.parse(`{
"__proto__": {
"data-inherited-canary": "present",
"src": "x-invalid://canary",
"onerror": "globalThis.__tiptapXss += 1"
}
}`)
const attrs = mergeAttributes(input)
// Object.keys(attrs) === []
// Object.getPrototypeOf(attrs) === input.__proto__
const schema = new Schema({
nodes: {
doc: { content: 'image' },
image: { toDOM: () => ['img', attrs] },
text: {},
},
})
const doc = schema.node('doc', null, [schema.node('image')])
const fragment = DOMSerializer.fromSchema(schema).serializeFragment(doc.content)
document.body.append(fragment)
Chromium produced an image with data-inherited-canary, src, and onerror; the handler executed exactly once. Object.prototype remained clean.
Impact and preconditions
Applications that merge untrusted imported document, plugin, CMS, API, tenant, or AI-derived attribute objects can receive a prototype-manipulated result. Consumers that enumerate inherited keys, including ProseMirror's DOM serializer, can turn the hidden properties into DOM attributes and execute JavaScript in the application's origin. Own-key validation, object spread, JSON serialization, and logging can miss the inherited values. Other component consumers can read inherited authorization or configuration fields.
Tiptap's standard fixed ProseMirror schemas discard unknown document attributes, so arbitrary Tiptap JSON is not automatically exploitable in every application. A vulnerable application needs an untrusted object boundary into mergeAttributes() or a dynamic/custom extension or schema that preserves the relevant attribute object.
Affected versions
The unsafe assignment was introduced in commit ecadf7ea0a7f8f39a8496a60edf0ac8f379e6eb3 and is present in the first package tag @tiptap/core@2.0.0-alpha.0, v2.0.0, v2.27.1, v3.0.0, and current v3.29.2 source. No fixed release was found.
Recommended remediation
Reject __proto__ before reading or assigning the key, or define copied keys as own data properties without invoking legacy setters. A minimal hardening is to skip key === '__proto__'. Add regression tests using an own JSON-origin __proto__ key and assert that the result keeps Object.prototype as its prototype, exposes no inherited attacker keys, and cannot create an event-handler attribute through DOMSerializer.
This was found during authorized dependency review and is being reported privately. No public zero-day issue has been opened.

GHSA-F23M-R3PF-42RH
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-01 23:50 – Updated: 2026-04-01 23:50Impact
Lodash versions 4.17.23 and earlier are vulnerable to prototype pollution in the _.unset and _.omit functions. The fix for CVE-2025-13465 only guards against string key members, so an attacker can bypass the check by passing array-wrapped path segments. This allows deletion of properties from built-in prototypes such as Object.prototype, Number.prototype, and String.prototype.
The issue permits deletion of prototype properties but does not allow overwriting their original behavior.
Patches
This issue is patched in 4.18.0.
Workarounds
None. Upgrade to the patched version.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-01 15:30 – Updated: 2026-08-31 19:51Duplicate Advisory
This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-mmx7-hfxf-jppx. This link is maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
axios is vulnerable to read-side prototype-pollution gadgets that can alter request construction when Object.prototype has already been polluted by a separate vulnerability or dependency. In the bodyless method aliases (axios.get(), axios.delete(), axios.head(), axios.options()), inherited data is read via (config || {}).data before config normalization, causing an attacker-controlled body to be sent on requests that did not set one. Additional low-level paths, only reachable when calling exported adapters/helpers (e.g. lib/adapters/http.js, unsafe/helpers/resolveConfig.js) directly with plain configs and no own proxy or paramsSerializer, can inherit polluted proxy values (routing requests through an attacker-controlled proxy) or paramsSerializer values (attacker-controlled URL serialization). These low-level gadgets do not reproduce through normal high-level axios calls on 1.15.2+. The issue is fixed in axios 1.18.0 and 0.33.0.

GHSA-F49M-VF83-692W
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-25 17:28 – Updated: 2026-06-25 17:28Impact
i18next-http-middleware ≤ 3.9.6's missingKeyHandler blocked the literal request-body keys __proto__, constructor, and prototype (added in 3.9.3, see GHSA-5fgg-jcpf-8jjw), but did not reject dotted variants such as "__proto__.polluted". Downstream backends that split the missing-key string on a configured keySeparator (notably i18next-fs-backend ≤ 2.6.5) hand these keys to an unguarded setPath() walker that writes to Object.prototype.
Applications that expose missingKeyHandler to untrusted input AND use i18next-fs-backend ≤ 2.6.5 are directly exploitable for remote prototype pollution. Other downstream backends that split the missing-key string the same way may be similarly affected.
Depending on the host application, polluted prototype properties may cause crashes, corrupted translation behaviour, configuration poisoning, or bypasses of property-based security checks.
Patches
Fixed in i18next-http-middleware 3.9.7. A new utils.hasUnsafeKeySegment(key, keySeparator) helper is now used by missingKeyHandler; the configured i18next.options.keySeparator is honoured (default .; false disables segment splitting and only the literal-key denylist applies). Legitimate dotted keys (e.g. "header.title") are unaffected.
The root-cause fix has been shipped in i18next-fs-backend 2.6.6 — see the companion advisory.
Workarounds
If users cannot upgrade immediately:
- Do not expose
missingKeyHandlerto untrusted users (mount it behind authentication, or remove the route). - Add a request-body filter ahead of the handler that rejects any top-level key containing
__proto__,constructor, orprototypeafter splitting on a configuredkeySeparator. - Disable missing-key persistence (
saveMissing: false) when accepting writes from untrusted input.

Mitigation
By freezing the object prototype first (for example, Object.freeze(Object.prototype)), modification of the prototype becomes impossible.
Mitigation
By blocking modifications of attributes that resolve to object prototype, such as proto or prototype, this weakness can be mitigated.
Mitigation
Strategy: Input Validation
When handling untrusted objects, validating using a schema can be used.
Mitigation
By using an object without prototypes (via Object.create(null) ), adding object prototype attributes by accessing the prototype via the special attributes becomes impossible, mitigating this weakness.
Mitigation
Map can be used instead of objects in most cases. If Map methods are used instead of object attributes, it is not possible to access the object prototype or modify it.
CAPEC-1: Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs
In applications, particularly web applications, access to functionality is mitigated by an authorization framework. This framework maps Access Control Lists (ACLs) to elements of the application's functionality; particularly URL's for web apps. In the case that the administrator failed to specify an ACL for a particular element, an attacker may be able to access it with impunity. An attacker with the ability to access functionality not properly constrained by ACLs can obtain sensitive information and possibly compromise the entire application. Such an attacker can access resources that must be available only to users at a higher privilege level, can access management sections of the application, or can run queries for data that they otherwise not supposed to.
CAPEC-180: Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels
An attacker exploits a weakness in the configuration of access controls and is able to bypass the intended protection that these measures guard against and thereby obtain unauthorized access to the system or network. Sensitive functionality should always be protected with access controls. However configuring all but the most trivial access control systems can be very complicated and there are many opportunities for mistakes. If an attacker can learn of incorrectly configured access security settings, they may be able to exploit this in an attack.
CAPEC-77: Manipulating User-Controlled Variables
This attack targets user controlled variables (DEBUG=1, PHP Globals, and So Forth). An adversary can override variables leveraging user-supplied, untrusted query variables directly used on the application server without any data sanitization. In extreme cases, the adversary can change variables controlling the business logic of the application. For instance, in languages like PHP, a number of poorly set default configurations may allow the user to override variables.
