Real-World Exposure
How broadly this vulnerability is actually deployed: weekly install volume shows current usage, and reverse-dependency count shows how many other packages break if it stays unpatched.
dojonpmDescription
In affected versions of dojo (NPM package), the deepCopy method is vulnerable to Prototype Pollution.
Prototype Pollution refers to the ability to inject properties into existing JavaScript language construct prototypes, such as objects. An attacker manipulates these attributes to overwrite, or pollute, a JavaScript application object prototype of the base object by injecting other values.
This has been patched in versions 1.12.8, 1.13.7, 1.14.6, 1.15.3 and 1.16.2

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for dojo, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update dojo to 1.11.10 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jxfh-8wgv-vfr2 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Stop passing untrusted input into the interpreter or shell: call the affected binary with an argument array rather than a composed command string, reject anything outside a strict allowlist of expected values, and run the component under an account that cannot reach beyond the work it legitimately does.
