[Security] Bump serialize-javascript from 1.5.0 to 6.0.0

[dependabot-preview]

Bumps serialize-javascript from 1.5.0 to 6.0.0. This update includes security fixes.

Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The GitHub Security Advisory Database.

Insecure serialization leading to RCE in serialize-javascript serialize-javascript prior to 3.1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary code via the function "deleteFunctions" within "index.js".

An object such as {"foo": /1"/, "bar": "a\"@__R--0__@"} was serialized as {"foo": /1"/, "bar": "a\/1"/}, which allows an attacker to escape the bar key. This requires the attacker to control the values of both foo and bar and guess the value of ``. The UID has a keyspace of approximately 4 billion making it a realistic network attack.

The following proof-of-concept calls console.log() when the running eval(): eval('('+ serialize({"foo": /1" + console.log(1)/i, "bar": '"@__R--0__@'}) + ')');

Affected versions: < 3.1.0

Moderate severity vulnerability that affects serialize-javascript

regular expressions Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability

Impact

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS). It does not properly mitigate against unsafe characters in serialized regular expressions.

This vulnerability is not affected on Node.js environment since Node.js's implementation of RegExp.prototype.toString() backslash-escapes all forward slashes in regular expressions.

If serialized data of regular expression objects are used in an environment other than Node.js, it is affected by this vulnerability.

Patches

This was patched in v2.1.1.

Affected versions: < 2.1.1

Behavior changes for URL objects

It serializes URL objects as follows since this version. The result of serialization may be changed if you are passing URL object values into the serialize-javascript.

const serialize = require("serialize-javascript");
serialize({u: new URL("http://example.com/")}); // '{"u":new URL("http://example.com/")}'
