Description

Under certain circumstances, unevaling untrusted data can produce output code that will create objects with polluted prototypes when later evaled, meaning the output data can be a different shape from the input data.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for devalue, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update devalue to 5.6.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-8qm3-746x-r74r is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
