Description
ExcelJS through 4.4.0 contains a prototype pollution vulnerability in mergeConditionalFormattings that allows attackers to modify Object.prototype by supplying an x14:cfRule id of __proto__. Attackers can craft an xlsx file that, when loaded with xlsx.load(), sets properties such as type, direction, border and cfvo on every object in the process until it restarts.
