A flaw was found in the jsonpath component. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution by supplying a malicious JSON Path expression. The component's reliance on the `static-eval` module for processing user-supplied input leads to unsafe evaluation. Successful exploitation can result in Remote Code Execution (RCE) in Node.js environments or Cross-site Scripting (XSS) in browser contexts. jsonpath: jsonpath: Arbitrary Code Execution via unsafe JSON Path expression evaluation Red Hat Product Security team has rated this vulnerability as Important as it may allows arbitrary code execution when processing untrusted JSON Path expressions. This can lead to Remote Code Execution in Node.js environments or Cross-site Scripting in browser contexts. In some contexts it may be possible to remotely exploit this flaw without any privileges. However, within Red Hat products the jsonpath component is used as a transitive dependency or does not directly handle user input. This context reduces exposure and criticality of this vulnerability. The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
