Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution via the .ToString() method due to improper sanitization. Exploiting this vulnerability is possible when a binding parameter is a crafted Object and might result in arbitrary JavaScript code execution or DoS.

Workarounds
