lodash vulnerable to Prototype Pollution via array path bypass in `_.unset` and `_.omit`

CISA 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.

The _.unset and _.omit functions in Lodash are vulnerable to prototype pollution. The fix for CVE-2025-13465 only guards against string key members, so an attacker can bypass the check by passing array-wrapped path segments. This allows deletion of properties from built-in prototypes such as Object.prototype, Number.prototype, and String.prototype. The issue permits deletion of prototype properties but does not allow overwriting their original behavior. The issue is patched from 4.18.0 to 4.18.1 depending on the package: lodash, lodash-es, and lodash-amd in 4.18.1, and the standalone lodash.unset and lodash.omit packages in 4.18.0.

### Impact The `_.unset`, `_.omit`, and `_.pullAt` functions are vulnerable to prototype pollution. The fix for [CVE-2025-13465](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/security/advisories/GHSA-xxjr-mmjv-4gpg) only guards against string key members, so an attacker can bypass the check by passing array-wrapped path segments. This allows deletion of properties from built-in prototypes such as `Object.prototype`, `Number.prototype`, and `String.prototype`. The issue permits deletion of prototype properties but does not allow overwriting their original behavior. ### Patches The issue is patched from 4.18.0 to 4.18.1 depending on the package: `lodash`, `lodash-es`, and `lodash-amd` in 4.18.1, and the standalone `lodash.unset` and `lodash.omit` packages in 4.18.0. ### Workarounds None. Upgrade to the patched version. ### References - [CVE-2025-13465 / GHSA-xxjr-mmjv-4gpg](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/security/advisories/GHSA-xxjr-mmjv-4gpg) (original fix that this bypasses)
