    Six Proto6 vulnerabilities expose protobuf.js to RCE and DoS

    Initial Disclosure

    Cyera flagged six Proto6 vulnerabilities in protobuf.js, a JavaScript and TypeScript implementation of Protocol Buffers, affecting Node.js applications that deserialize Protobuf data or generate code from schemas. The flaws can lead to remote code execution, denial of service, or runtime corruption when a malicious protobuf schema, descriptor, or crafted payload is processed, with impact extending to Google Cloud client libraries, messaging frameworks like Baileys, and CI/CD pipelines.
