- - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-3618-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Yadd October 14, 2023 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

Package : node-babel Version : 6.26.0+dfsg-3+deb10u1 CVE ID : CVE-2023-45133 Debian Bug : https://bugs.debian.org/1053880

In @babel/traverse prior to versions 7.23.2 and 8.0.0-alpha.4 and all versions of `babel-traverse`, using Babel to compile code that was specifically crafted by an attacker can lead to arbitrary code execution during compilation, when using plugins that rely on the path.evaluate() or path.evaluateTruthy() internal Babel methods.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 6.26.0+dfsg-3+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your node-babel packages.

For the detailed security status of node-babel please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/node-babel

Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the node-babel-cli packages.
