Prism is a syntax highlighting library. Some languages before 1.24.0 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). When Prism is used to highlight untrusted (user-given) text, an attacker can craft a string that will take a very very long time to highlight. This problem has been fixed in Prism v1.24. As a workaround, do not use ASCIIDoc or ERB to highlight untrusted text. Other languages are not affected and can be used to highlight untrusted text.
The package prismjs before 1.23.0 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the prism-asciidoc, prism-rest, prism-tap and prism-eiffel components.
