CVE-2026-73231 · Faker: helpers.fake exploitable into arbritary code execution

This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.

Faker generates massive amounts of fake data in the browser and Node.js. Prior to 10.5.0, the faker.helpers.fake method in src/modules/helpers/eval.ts allows attacker-controlled fake templates to access the Function constructor through fakeEval.resolveProperty when a function returns another function, enabling arbitrary JavaScript code execution. This issue is fixed in version 10.5.0.
