How to Fix GHSA-qc22-qwm9-j8rx

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

npm-groovy-lint fixed: 9.1.0 
npm install npm-groovy-lint@9.1.0
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 npm-groovy-lint

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by GHSA-qc22-qwm9-j8rx, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls npm-groovy-lint

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Npm groovy lint in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 9.1.0), your application is affected.

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

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-20: Improper Input Validation, where the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. In Npm groovy lint, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Versions of npm-groovy-lint prior to 9.1.0 bundle vulnerable versions of the Log4j library which are subject to remote code execution via jndi rendering. As a result npm-groovy-lint prior to 9.1.0 is also vulnerable.
