CVE-2026-48170: scimPatch vulnerable to prototype pollution via unfiltered keys in patch

June 22, 2026

scim-patch performs prototype pollution when applying a SCIM PATCH operation whose value object contains a key like "__proto__.someProp". After one such patch, Object.prototype.someProp is set process-wide, affecting every plain object in the Node process.

Any service that calls scimPatch() on attacker-controlled JSON (i.e. any SCIM endpoint accepting PATCH from an external IdP) is exploitable on a stock Node runtime.
