DescriptionCVE.org

Quasar Framework is a framework for building high-performance Vue.js user interfaces. Prior to 2.22.0, the public extend() utility in ui/src/utils/extend/extend.js recursively copied attacker-controlled object keys during extend(true, target, source) deep merges without rejecting an own __proto__ property. The merge could descend into the prototype object and write attacker-controlled properties to Object.prototype in the same JavaScript process. Applications that passed user-controlled or partially user-controlled objects to extend() could experience logic bypass, unsafe default-option injection, denial of service, or other application-specific impact when polluted properties were later consumed. This issue is fixed in version 2.22.0.

AnalysisAI

Prototype pollution in Quasar Framework's public extend() utility (npm package quasar, versions <= 2.21.4) allows attacker-controlled properties to be written to Object.prototype when applications pass user-controlled objects into deep merge calls. The flaw exists because extend(true, target, source) recursively copies source keys including __proto__ without rejection, enabling descent into the prototype chain. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Submit crafted JSON payload containing __proto__ key
Delivery
Application deserializes and passes object to extend(true, target, source)
Exploit
Recursive merge descends into Object.prototype via __proto__ traversal
Execution
Attacker-controlled properties written to shared Object.prototype
Persist
All plain objects in process inherit injected properties
Impact
Logic bypass, unsafe default injection, or denial of service triggered

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the application passes user-controlled or partially user-controlled objects to Quasar's extend() function in deep-merge mode - specifically, the call signature extend(true, target, source) where source contains attacker-supplied keys. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 3.1 score of 5.6 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) correctly captures the tension in this vulnerability: while no authentication or user interaction is required at the network level, the AC:H rating reflects the critical real-world constraint - exploitation succeeds only when application code passes user-controlled or partially user-controlled data directly to extend(true, ...) without prior sanitization. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits a crafted JSON body to an application endpoint - such as a configuration import, merge-patch, or user-preferences API - containing a key literally named __proto__ with a nested object of injected properties. When the server-side code passes this deserialized object to extend(true, target, source), the merge recursively writes the injected properties onto Object.prototype, causing every subsequent plain object in the process to inherit them. …
Remediation Upgrade the quasar npm package to version 2.22.0 or later; this is the vendor-confirmed fix per the GitHub release at https://github.com/quasarframework/quasar/releases/tag/quasar-v2.22.0 and the advisory at https://github.com/quasarframework/quasar/security/advisories/GHSA-3r53-75j5-3g7j. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
