The TypeScript Prompty loader used gray-matter without overriding executable frontmatter engines. gray-matter supports JavaScript frontmatter blocks such as ---js and evaluates them while parsing. An attacker-controlled .prompty file could therefore execute arbitrary JavaScript during prompt loading.
@prompty/core v2 prerelease line: >= 2.0.0-alpha.1 < 2.0.0-beta.3@prompty/[email protected]The legacy v1 JavaScript runtime had a historical hardening change for this issue. During the v2 TypeScript runtime rebuild, the loader again called gray-matter directly and the vulnerable behavior was present in the v2 prerelease packages until 2.0.0-beta.3.
Applications that load untrusted .prompty files, user-provided prompt paths, or prompt bundles from less-trusted locations could execute arbitrary JavaScript in the host Node.js process during frontmatter parsing.
Upgrade @prompty/core to 2.0.0-beta.3 or later.
The fix explicitly overrides the js and javascript gray-matter engines and rejects JavaScript frontmatter in .prompty files. Prompty frontmatter is YAML-only; executable frontmatter is unsupported. A regression test now verifies that ---js frontmatter is rejected and not evaluated.
Fixed by commit c27402da2487075be577f06aa79df627fb9d6853 and released via typescript/2.0.0-beta.3.
