Validation Bypass in kind-of
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
Versions of `kind-of` 6.x prior to 6.0.3 are vulnerable to a Validation Bypass. A maliciously crafted object can alter the result of the type check, allowing attackers to bypass the type checking validation.
## Recommendation
Upgrade to versions 6.0.3 or later.
