NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream codemirror-js package and not the codemirror-js package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

This affects the package codemirror before 5.58.2; the package org.apache.marmotta.webjars:codemirror before 5.58.2. The vulnerable regular expression is located in https://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror/blob/cdb228ac736369c685865b122b736cd0d397836c/mode/javascript/javascript.jsL129. The ReDOS vulnerability of the regex is mainly due to the sub-pattern (s|/.?/)
