Vulnerability	Vulnerable Version
H Arbitrary Code Injection protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection via the `pbjs` static code generation. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by providing crafted schema names that are incorporated into generated JavaScript output, which is then executed or imported by the application or build process. Note: This is only exploitable if the application or build process runs `pbjs` static code generation on a pre-parsed JSON descriptor influenced by an attacker, the generated JavaScript file is subsequently executed or imported, and an affected generated API path is invoked. How to fix Arbitrary Code Injection? Upgrade `protobufjs` to version 7.6.2, 8.5.0 or higher.	<7.6.2>=8.0.0-experimental <8.5.0
H Uncontrolled Recursion protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Recursion during the JSON conversion. An attacker can exhaust the call stack and cause the application to crash by supplying crafted protobuf binary data containing deeply nested `Any` values that are expanded during conversion. This is only exploitable if the application decodes attacker-influenced protobuf binary data, the schema includes `google.protobuf.Any`, the referenced `type_url` resolves to a loaded message type, and the application converts the decoded message to JSON or a plain object through an affected conversion path with deeply nested `Any` values. How to fix Uncontrolled Recursion? Upgrade `protobufjs` to version 7.6.1, 8.4.1 or higher.	<7.6.1>=8.0.0 <8.4.1
M Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions in the schema-derived names that collide with runtime-significant properties. An attacker can cause affected message or service types to become unusable, resulting in denial of service for the relevant processing path, by providing or influencing protobuf schemas or JSON descriptors containing problematic names such as `hasOwnProperty`, `$type`, or `rpcCall`. How to fix Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions? Upgrade `protobufjs` to version 7.6.3, 8.6.0 or higher.	<7.6.3>=8.0.0 <8.6.0
M Uncontrolled Recursion protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Recursion through the `Root.fromJSON` or `Namespace.addJSON` functions. An attacker can cause resource exhaustion and disrupt service availability by submitting a crafted JSON descriptor with deeply nested namespace definitions. Note: This is only exploitable if all of the following conditions are met: The application must load JSON descriptor data influenced by an attacker. The crafted descriptor must contain deeply nested nested namespace objects. The affected `Root.fromJSON()` / `Namespace.addJSON()` descriptor expansion path must process the crafted input. How to fix Uncontrolled Recursion? Upgrade `protobufjs` to version 7.5.8, 8.2.0 or higher.	<7.5.8>=8.0.0 <8.2.0
M Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding in the decoding of overlong UTF-8 strings. An attacker can bypass application-level byte filtering or validation by sending malicious sequences that decode to canonical characters. This is only exploitable if the application decodes protobuf binary data using the minimal UTF-8 decoder and relies on byte-level filtering before string decoding. How to fix Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding? Upgrade `protobufjs` to version 7.5.6, 8.0.2, 8.0.3, 8.2.0 or higher.	<7.5.6>=8.0.0-experimental <8.0.2>=8.0.3-experimental <8.0.3>=8.0.4-experimental <8.2.0

protobufjs is a protocol buffer for JavaScript (& TypeScript).

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions in the schema-derived names that collide with runtime-significant properties. An attacker can cause affected message or service types to become unusable, resulting in denial of service for the relevant processing path, by providing or influencing protobuf schemas or JSON descriptors containing problematic names such as hasOwnProperty, $type, or rpcCall.
