Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in @tygo-van-den-hurk/slyde
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| npm | @tygo-van-den-hurk/slyde | < 0.0.5 | 0.0.5 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
This is a **remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability**. Node.js automatically imports `**/*.plugin.{js,mjs}` files including those from `node_modules`, so any malicious package with a `.plugin.js` file could execute arbitrary code when installed or required. **All projects using this loading behavior are affected**, especially those installing untrusted packages.
### Patches
The issue has been **patched in v0.0.5**. Users should upgrade to **v0.0.5 or later** to mitigate the vulnerability.
### Workarounds
- Audit and restrict which packages are installed in `node_modules`.
