devalue `uneval`ed code can create objects with polluted prototypes when `eval`ed

  • Disclosed: 19.02.2026
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 10:22

Under certain circumstances, unevaling untrusted data can produce output code that will create objects with polluted prototypes when later evaled, meaning the output data can be a different shape from the input data.
