- GHSA-6pq3-928q-x6w6Prototype Pollution2020-09-03ghsa · osvUS
All versions of `utils-extend` are vulnerable to prototype pollution. The `extend` function does not restrict the modification of an Object's prototype, which may allow an attacker to add or modify an existing property that will exist on all objects. ## Recommendation No fix is currently available. Consider using an alternative package until a fix is made available.
