Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

Affected versions of `summit` allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands via collection names when using the `PouchDB` driver. ## Recommendation No direct patch is available at this time. Currently, the best option to mitigate the issue is to avoid using the `PouchDB` driver, as the package author has abandoned this feature entirely.
