An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-36604 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- @hapi/hoek (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 8.5.1\n- @hapi/hoek (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 8.5.1\n- @hapi/hoek (npm): affected from 9.0.0; fixed in 9.0.3\n- @hapi/hoek (npm): affected from 9.0.0; fixed in 9.0.3\n- hoek (npm): affected all versions up to 6.1.3; no fix listed\n- hoek (npm): affected all versions up to 6.1.3; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36604/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36604/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-36604","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36604/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-36604","record":{"aliases":["CLSA-2026-1778633138","DEBIAN-CVE-2020-36604","GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp","ROOT-APP-NPM-CVE-2020-36604","UBUNTU-CVE-2020-36604"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Node.js utility library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Prototype poisoning in the clone function allows attackers to inject code or escalate privileges in applications using the hoek library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"hoek","vendor":"hapijs"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1321","name":"Improperly Controlled Modification of Object Prototype Attributes"}],"description":"hoek before 8.5.1 and 9.x before 9.0.3 allows prototype poisoning in the clone function.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"hoek subject to prototype pollution via the clone function.","id":"CVE-2020-36604","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2020"},"n_packages":6,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Misconfiguration in Hitachi Infrastructure Analytics Advisor","id":"CVE-2020-36605"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["8.5.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"@hapi/hoek","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["8.5.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"@hapi/hoek","purl":"pkg:npm/%40hapi/hoek","source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["9.0.3"],"introduced":["9.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"@hapi/hoek","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["9.0.3"],"introduced":["9.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"@hapi/hoek","purl":"pkg:npm/%40hapi/hoek","source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["6.1.3"],"package":"hoek","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["6.1.3"],"package":"hoek","purl":"pkg:npm/hoek","source":"GHSA-c429-5p7v-vgjp"}],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36603"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2022-09-23","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Prototype Pollution in hoek","id":"CVE-2018-3728","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-30"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-27","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Prototype poisoning in the clone function allows attackers to inject code or escalate privileges in applications using the hoek library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36604/"}
