DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was determined in jQWidgets up to 24.0.1. This affects the function JQXLite.extend/jqxBaseFramework.extend of the file jqwidgets/jqx-all.js. This manipulation causes improperly controlled modification of object prototype attributes. The attack can be initiated remotely. The reported GitHub issue was closed with the label "not planned".

AnalysisAI

Prototype pollution in jQWidgets up to version 24.0.1 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to manipulate JavaScript object prototypes via the JQXLite.extend and jqxBaseFramework.extend functions in jqwidgets/jqx-all.js. Successful exploitation can affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of any web application embedding this library. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the application passes attacker-controlled input - such as URL query parameters, form fields, API request bodies, or parsed JSON - into the `JQXLite.extend` or `jqxBaseFramework.extend` function without sanitizing keys like `__proto__`, `constructor`, or `prototype`. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 with AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N reflects that exploitation requires no authentication, no interaction, and no unusual conditions - consistent with how prototype pollution primitives are typically triggered via crafted JSON or URL parameters reaching an unguarded extend function. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits a crafted HTTP request to a jQWidgets-powered web application carrying a JSON payload containing `{"__proto__": {"isAdmin": true}}` in a field that the application forwards to `jqxBaseFramework.extend`. The extend function merges the payload without key filtering, injecting `isAdmin: true` onto `Object.prototype`, which all subsequent objects in the application inherit - potentially bypassing access control checks that test `object.isAdmin`. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch is available and none is expected - the GitHub issue at https://github.com/jqwidgets/jQWidgets/issues/764 was closed by the maintainer as 'not planned.' The primary long-term remediation is migrating to an actively maintained UI widget library. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
