Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: EvoMap
Product: evolver

Description

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.

Technical Analysis

EvoMap evolver versions before 1.69.3 contain a prototype pollution vulnerability (CWE-1321) in the mailbox store module. The vulnerability arises because the functions _applyUpdate() and _updateRecord() merge user-supplied data into objects using Object.assign() without filtering out keys that can alter the Object prototype, such as __proto__, constructor, or prototype. This flaw enables attackers with high privileges to inject properties into Object.prototype, potentially modifying the behavior of all JavaScript objects in the environment. The issue has been fixed in version 1.69.3.

Potential Impact

An attacker with high privileges can exploit this vulnerability to perform prototype pollution by injecting malicious properties into Object.prototype. This can lead to altered behavior of JavaScript objects, potentially causing integrity and availability impacts as indicated by the CVSS vector (Confidentiality: Low, Integrity: Low, Availability: High). No known exploits in the wild have been reported.

Mitigation Recommendations

This vulnerability has been patched in EvoMap evolver version 1.69.3. Users should upgrade to version 1.69.3 or later to remediate this issue. Since the product is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the vendor's patch. Patch status is not explicitly stated in the vendor advisory, but the description confirms the fix is included in version 1.69.3.
