Vulnerability Title
protobufjs: Denial of service through unbounded protobuf recursion
Source: NVD (National Vulnerability Database)
Vulnerability Description
protobufjs compiles protobuf definitions into JavaScript (JS) functions. Prior to 7.5.6 and 8.0.2, protobufjs could recurse without a depth limit while decoding nested protobuf data. This affected both skipping unknown group fields and generated decoding of nested message fields. A crafted protobuf binary payload could cause the JavaScript call stack to be exhausted during decoding. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.5.6 and 8.0.2.

Vulnerability Title
protobuf.js 安全漏洞
Source: CNNVD (China National Vulnerability Database)
Vulnerability Description
protobuf.js是The protobuf.js Project开源的一个纯 JavaScript 实现，具有对node.js和浏览器的TypeScript支持的协议缓冲区实现。它易于使用，速度极快，并且通过.proto文件可以开箱即用！ protobuf.js 7.5.6之前版本和8.0.2之前版本存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于解码嵌套protobuf数据时无深度限制递归，可能导致JavaScript调用栈耗尽。
