How to Fix CVE-2024-45390

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

@blakeembrey/template fixed: 1.2.0 
npm install @blakeembrey/template@1.2.0
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 @blakeembrey/template

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2024-45390, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @blakeembrey/template

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @blakeembrey/template in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.2.0), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls @blakeembrey/template 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-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection'), where the product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment. In @blakeembrey/template, 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

### Impact It is possible to inject and run code within the template if the attacker has access to write the template name. ```js const { template } = require('@blakeembrey/template'); template("Hello {{name}}!", "exploit() {} && ((()=>{ console.log('success'); })()) && function pwned"); ``` ### Patches Upgrade to 1.2.0. ### Workarounds Don't pass untrusted input as the template display name, or don't use the display name feature. ### References Fixed by removing in https://github.com/blakeembrey/js-template/commit/b8d9aa999e464816c6cfb14acd1ad0f5d1e335aa.
