CVE-2026-42077: CWE-1321: Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes ('Prototype Pollution') in EvoMap evolver
Evolver is a GEP-powered self-evolving engine for AI agents. Prior to version 1.69.3, a prototype pollution vulnerability in the mailbox store module allows attackers to modify the behavior of all JavaScript objects by injecting malicious properties into Object.prototype. The vulnerability exists in the _applyUpdate() and _updateRecord() functions which use Object.assign() to merge user-controlled data without filtering dangerous keys like __proto__, constructor, or prototype. This issue has been patched in version 1.69.3.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
EvoMap evolver versions before 1.69.3 contain a prototype pollution vulnerability (CWE-1321) in the mailbox store module. The vulnerability arises because the _applyUpdate() and _updateRecord() functions use Object.assign() to merge user-controlled input without filtering out prototype-related keys such as __proto__, constructor, or prototype. This improper handling enables attackers with high privileges to inject properties into Object.prototype, potentially altering the behavior of all JavaScript objects in the environment. The issue has been addressed by the vendor in version 1.69.3.
Potential Impact
An attacker with high privileges on a vulnerable EvoMap evolver instance can exploit this vulnerability to modify the prototype of JavaScript objects, potentially leading to altered application behavior and high impact on availability. The confidentiality and integrity impacts are low, but the availability impact is high as per the CVSS vector. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade EvoMap evolver to version 1.69.3 or later, where this prototype pollution vulnerability has been patched. Since this is not a cloud service, users must apply the update themselves. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor's versioning information. No additional mitigation steps are indicated.
