How to Fix CVE-2022-24822

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

@podium/layout fixed: 4.6.110 
npm install @podium/layout@4.6.110
@podium/proxy fixed: 4.2.74 
npm install @podium/proxy@4.2.74
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 @podium/layout

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2022-24822, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @podium/layout

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @podium/layout in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 4.6.110), your application is affected.

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