Handlebars provides the power necessary to let users build semantic templates. In versions 4.0.0 through 4.7.8, Handlebars.compile() accepts a pre-parsed AST object in addition to a template string. The value field of a NumberLiteral AST node is emitted directly into the generated JavaScript without quoting or sanitization. An attacker who can supply a crafted AST to compile() can therefore inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript, leading to Remote Code Execution on the server. Version 4.7.9 fixes the issue. Some workarounds are available. Validate input type before calling Handlebars.compile(); ensure the argument is always a string, never a plain object or JSON-deserialized value. Use the Handlebars runtime-only build (handlebars/runtime) on the server if templates are pre-compiled at build time; compile() will be unavailable.
A flaw was found in Handlebars. An attacker can exploit this by supplying a crafted Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) object to the Handlebars.compile() function. This allows the injection and execution of arbitrary JavaScript code due to improper sanitization of the value field in NumberLiteral AST nodes. This vulnerability can lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the server.
Отчет
This is an Important vulnerability in Handlebars that allows for Remote Code Execution. The flaw occurs when the Handlebars.compile() function processes a specially crafted Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) object, leading to the injection and execution of arbitrary JavaScript code. Red Hat products utilizing Handlebars are affected if they process untrusted input through the compile() function.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, ensure that any input provided to the Handlebars.compile() function is strictly validated to be a string type, preventing the injection of crafted Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) objects. Additionally, for deployments where templates are pre-compiled at build time, consider utilizing the Handlebars runtime-only build (handlebars/runtime). This build variant does not include the compile() function, thereby eliminating the attack vector. If the application is a service, a restart may be required for the changes to take effect.

Handlebars provides the power necessary to let users build semantic templates. In versions 4.0.0 through 4.7.8, `Handlebars.compile()` accepts a pre-parsed AST object in addition to a template string. The `value` field of a `NumberLiteral` AST node is emitted directly into the generated JavaScript without quoting or sanitization. An attacker who can supply a crafted AST to `compile()` can therefore inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript, leading to Remote Code Execution on the server. Version 4.7.9 fixes the issue. Some workarounds are available. Validate input type before calling `Handlebars.compile()`; ensure the argument is always a `string`, never a plain object or JSON-deserialized value. Use the Handlebars runtime-only build (`handlebars/runtime`) on the server if templates are pre-compiled at build time; `compile()` will be unavailable.
