CVE-2022-37598
Description
A prototype pollution vulnerability was found in UglifyJS, stemming from the DEFNODE function in ast.js via the name variable. Exploiting this flaw involves adding or altering properties of the Object.prototype through a "proto" or constructor payload, enabling an attacker to execute arbitrary code or causing a denial of service on the system.
Statement
OpenShift Service Mesh is closed as wontfix, as @types/uglify-js is hoisted from the storybook, which is a dev dep only and does not affect the production Kiali container. Also, this dependency has been removed completely from OSSM 2.3.
Upstream doesn't consider this as a vulnerability. Refer to the "External References" section for more details.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
