Vulnerability Details
Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 1.15.0, the Axios library is vulnerable to a specific "Gadget" attack chain that allows Prototype Pollution in any third-party dependency to be escalated into Remote Code Execution (RCE) or Full Cloud Compromise (via AWS IMDSv2 bypass). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.15.0.

Vulnerability Details
Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 1.15.0, Axios does not correctly handle hostname normalization when checking NO_PROXY rules. Requests to loopback addresses like localhost. (with a trailing dot) or [::1] (IPv6 literal) skip NO_PROXY matching and go through the configured proxy. This goes against what developers expect and lets attackers force requests through a proxy, even if NO_PROXY is set up to protect loopback or internal services. This issue leads to the possibility of proxy bypass and SSRF vulnerabilities allowing attackers to reach sensitive loopback or internal services despite the configured protections. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.15.0.

Found in base branch: main
Vulnerability Details
The plain-crypto-js npm package version 4.2.1 contains a malicious postinstall script that deploys a cross-platform remote access trojan (RAT). When installed, the script contacts a remote C2 server to deliver second-stage payloads for macOS, Windows, and Linux, then deletes itself and replaces its package.json with a clean decoy to hinder forensic analysis. This package was injected as a hidden dependency into the compromised axios releases 1.14.1 and 0.30.4. Users of plain-crypto-js 4.2.1 or axios 1.14.1 and 0.30.4 are advised to treat affected systems as fully compromised. Axios users should pin to axios@1.14.0 (1.x) or axios@0.29.0 (0.x).
