msgpack5: Partial options disable prototype protection
Collected exploitation and prediction evidence
Risk source coverageCISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Publishedmsgpack5 is a msgpack v5 implementation for node.js and the browser. Prior to 6.1.0, constructing msgpack5 with an empty or partial options object disables the default protoAction: 'error' protection. A decoded map containing a __proto__ key can then replace the decoded object's prototype, potentially changing inherited properties or downstream behavior, although Object.prototype is not modified globally. This issue is fixed in version 6.1.0.

Published### Impact Passing an empty or partial options object disables the default `protoAction: 'error'` protection. A map containing a `__proto__` key can then replace the prototype of the decoded object, potentially changing inherited properties or causing unexpected behavior in downstream code. Only the decoded object's prototype is affected; this does not modify `Object.prototype` globally. ### Patches Options are now merged with secure defaults without modifying the caller's object. Unsupported `protoAction` values are rejected. ### Workarounds Explicitly set `protoAction: 'error'` whenever constructing a msgpack5 instance, and validate decoded values before use.
