NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream vitess-23 package and not the vitess-23 package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

protobufjs compiles protobuf definitions into JavaScript (JS) functions. Prior to 7.5.6 and 8.0.2, protobufjs generated JavaScript property accessors from schema-controlled field and oneof names. Certain control characters in field names were not escaped before being embedded into generated function bodies. A crafted schema or JSON descriptor could therefore cause generated encode, decode, verify, or conversion functions to fail during compilation. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.5.6 and 8.0.2.
