How to Fix CVE-2023-46494

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected @evershop/evershop dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

@evershop/evershop fixed: 1.0.0-rc.5
npm install @evershop/evershop@1.0.0-rc.5
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

npm ls @evershop/evershop

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2023-46494, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @evershop/evershop

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @evershop/evershop in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.0.0-rc.5), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls @evershop/evershop command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.
