Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Immutable.js, a library providing persistent immutable data structures. This vulnerability occurs when specific List operations, such as List#set or List#setSize, are provided with an index or size value within a particular large range. An attacker could exploit this by providing specially crafted input, leading to an uncatchable infinite loop or unbounded memory allocation, ultimately causing a Denial of Service (DoS) for applications using the library.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-08 17:02:42 UTC
Immutable.js provides many Persistent Immutable data structures. Prior to 4.3.9 and 5.1.8, List#set, List#setSize, List#setIn, List#updateIn, and the functional set, setIn, and updateIn mishandle an index or size in the range 2 ** 30 to 2 ** 31 in setListBounds in src/List.js, causing an empty List to enter an uncatchable infinite loop, a populated List to allocate without bound until process abort, or setSize to silently wrap large values. This issue is fixed in versions 4.3.9 and 5.1.8.
