Tracker summary

CVE-2023-26486 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (vega.js), 4 status rows across 4 suites (bookworm, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 3, open 1.

Description:

Vega is a visualization grammar, a declarative format for creating, saving, and sharing interactive visualization designs. The Vega `scale` expression function has the ability to call arbitrary functions with a single controlled argument. The scale expression function passes a user supplied argument group to getScale, which is then used as if it were an internal context. The context.scales[name].value is accessed from group and called as a function back in scale. This can be exploited to escape the Vega expression sandbox in order to execute arbitrary JavaScript. This issue has been fixed in version 5.13.1.
