Title

Electron: contextBridge object copy honors prototype setters

Summary

Electron is a framework for writing cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. Prior to 39.8.9, 40.9.2, 41.2.2, and 42.0.0-beta.4, objects copied across the contextBridge boundary from untrusted content could carry an attacker-influenced prototype, enabling prototype-pollution-style attacks against preload code despite context isolation being enabled. Apps are only affected if their preload code accepts object arguments from untrusted content and reads properties from them without own-property checks, while apps that only accept primitive arguments or validate object arguments are not affected. This issue is fixed in 39.8.9, 40.9.2, 41.2.2, and 42.0.0-beta.4.

GHSA-FF2P-HMQR-HXM4

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-05 17:41 – Updated: 2026-08-05 17:41

Summary

Electron: contextBridge object copy honors prototype setters

Details

Impact

Objects copied across the contextBridge boundary from untrusted content could carry an attacker-influenced prototype, enabling prototype-pollution-style attacks against preload code despite context isolation being enabled.

Apps are only affected if their preload code accepts object arguments from untrusted content and reads properties from them without own-property checks. Apps that only accept primitive arguments, or that validate object arguments, are not affected.

Workarounds

Validate objects received from untrusted content with own-property checks (Object.hasOwn), or copy them onto a null-prototype object before use.

Fixed Versions

42.0.0-beta.4
41.2.2
40.9.2
39.8.9
