ETK-2026-764Zero's internal tracking ID, independent of the CVE number.
withdrawndescription
The npm handlebars package is affected when application-controlled objects can be supplied to compile() or precompile() instead of template text. An attacker may cause supplied JavaScript to run in the server process during rendering or in an environment that loads generated templates.
mitigation
Require compile() and precompile() inputs to be strings, rejecting objects including request-body values. Use handlebars/runtime on servers when templates can be compiled during the build process.
outcome
No artifact: an exploit or check was attempted but could not be produced at this moment.
