This affects the package litespeed.js before 0.3.12; the package appwrite/server-ce from 0.12.0 and before 0.12.2, before 0.11.1. When parsing the query string in the getJsonFromUrl function, the key that is set in the result object is not properly sanitized leading to a Prototype Pollution vulnerability.

Weakness

The product receives input from an upstream component that specifies attributes that are to be initialized or updated in an object, but it does not properly control modifications of attributes of the object prototype.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Appwrite Appwrite * 0.11.1 (excluding)
Appwrite Appwrite 0.12.0 (including) 0.12.2 (excluding)
