CVE-2025-32014
estree-util-value-to-estree allows prototype pollution in generated ESTree
Impact
### Impact When generating an ESTree from a value with a property named `__proto__`, `valueToEstree` would generate an object that specifies a prototype instead. Example: ```js import { generate } from 'astring' import { valueToEstree } from 'estree-util-value-to-estree' const estree = valueToEstree({ ['__proto__']: {} }) const code = generate(estree) console.log(code) ``` Output: ```js { "__proto__": {} } ``` ### Patches This was fixed in version [3.3.3](https://github.com/remcohaszing/estree-util-value-to-estree/releases/tag/v3.3.3). ### Workarounds If you control the input, don’t specify a property named `__proto__`. If you don’t control the output, strip any properties named `__proto__` before passing it to `valueToEstree`.
