AI-suggested

A patch is available in Style Dictionary version 5.4.4. Users should upgrade to this version or later to remediate the vulnerability. As a workaround, sanitize token data before processing by recursively checking for keys containing '__proto__' and rejecting such tokens. Additionally, set the expand configuration option to false to prevent indirect exploitation via the Expand API. Example code for detection is provided in the advisory.

Description

Style Dictionary versions from 4.3.0 up to but not including 5.4.4 contain a prototype pollution vulnerability in the convertTokenData utility function. This vulnerability allows a malicious user to inject tokens with keys like '{__proto__.foo}', which pollutes the global Object.prototype. The vulnerability affects direct usage of convertTokenData as well as indirect usage via the Expand API or the transform lifecycle. The impact is highest when Style Dictionary is integrated into NodeJS server applications, moderate for web applications, and low when token data is tightly controlled. A patch is available in version 5.4.4. Workarounds include sanitizing token data to reject keys containing '__proto__' and disabling the expand feature.
