SF-JSL-HANDLEBARS-BETWEEN-V2990-V307 (for Salesforce)
Impact #
This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix for: Prototype Pollution refers to the ability to inject properties into existing JavaScript language construct prototypes, such as objects. When that happens, this leads to either denial of service by triggering JavaScript exceptions, or it tampers with the application source code to force the code path that the attacker injects, thereby leading to remote code execution.
Remediation
Update the Handlebars JS library to version 3.0.7, 4.1.2, 4.0.14 or higher.
