Impact Certain bidder adapters accept user-supplied parameters that are interpolated into outbound request URLs. Without proper input validation, a malicious actor could craft bid request parameters that cause the server to send HTTP requests to unintended destinations, potentially exposing internal network services or sensitive server endpoints to unauthorized access.

Patches Patched in v4.4.0

Workarounds If one is unable to update, please make sure that the affected bidder adapters are disabled.

Impact Npm users of PUC 1.17.3 or PUC latest were briefly affected by crypto-related malware detailed in the blog post below. This includes the extremely popular jsdelivr hosting of this file.

Patches We unpublished the version on npm.

Workarounds This has already been unpublished. See Prebid.js 9 release notes for suggestions on moving off the deprecated workflow of using the PUC or pointing to a dynamic version of it. PUC users pointing to latest should transition to 1.17.2 ASAP to avoid similar attacks in the future.
