Vulnerability intelligence
CVE-2026-107301 and is rated Medium severity with a CVSS score of 6.5. It is not in the current CISA KEV record we collected. That does not prove exploitation has not occurred.
Release Notes
msgpack5 is a msgpack v5 implementation for node.js and the browser. Prior to 6.1.0, constructing msgpack5 with an empty or partial options object disables the default protoAction: 'error' protection.
A decoded map containing a __proto__ key can then replace the decoded object's prototype, potentially changing inherited properties or downstream behavior, although Object.prototype is not modified globally. This issue is fixed in version 6.1.0.
