GHSA-rh46-3fgc-mvrf

Validation bypass is possible in Json Pattern Validator

Quick fix

GHSA-rh46-3fgc-mvrf — jpv: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

npm install jpv@2.1.1

Details

In jpv (aka Json Pattern Validator) before 2.1.1, compareCommon() can be bypassed because certain internal attributes can be overwritten via a conflicting name, as demonstrated by 'constructor': {'name':'Array'}. This affects validate(). Hence, a crafted payload can overwrite this builtin attribute to manipulate the type detection result.
