Tampering by prototype polution in DOMPurify

DOMPurify is a DOM-only, super-fast, uber-tolerant XSS sanitizer for HTML, MathML and SVG. It has been discovered that malicious HTML using special nesting techniques can bypass the depth checking added to DOMPurify in recent releases. It was also possible to use Prototype Pollution to weaken the depth check. This renders dompurify unable to avoid cross site scripting (XSS) attacks. This issue has been addressed in versions 2.5.4 and 3.1.3 of DOMPurify. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

@std/toml Prototype Pollution in Node.js and Browser

@std/toml is the Deno Standard Library. Prior to version 1.0.9, an attacker can pollute the prototype chain in Node.js runtime and Browser when parsing untrusted TOML data, thus achieving Prototype Pollution (PP) vulnerability. This is because the library is merging an untrusted object with an empty object, which by default the empty object has the prototype chain. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.9.

Winters <= 1.4.3 - Prototype Pollution to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

The Winters theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via prototype pollution in versions up to, and including, 1.4.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

A prototype pollution vulnerability exists in Strikingly CMS which can result in reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) in affected applications and sites built with Strikingly. The vulnerability exists because of Strikingly JavaScript library parsing the URL fragment allows access to the __proto__ or constructor properties and the Object prototype. By leveraging an embedded gadget like jQuery, an attacker who convinces a victim to visit a specially crafted link could achieve arbitrary javascript execution in the context of the user's browser.
