How to Fix CVE-2023-2583

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

jsreport fixed: 3.11.3 
npm install jsreport@3.11.3
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 jsreport

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2023-2583, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls jsreport

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Jsreport in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 3.11.3), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls jsreport 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 Jsreport, 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

jsreport prior to 3.11.3 had a version of vm2 vulnerable to CVE-2023-29017 hard coded in the package.json of the jsreport-core component. An attacker can use this vulnerability to obtain the authority of the jsreport playground server, or construct a malicious webpage/html file and send it to the user to attack the installed jsreport client.
