Some languages before 1.24.0 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS).
Impact
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. Do not use the following languages to highlight untrusted text.
- ASCIIDoc
- ERB
Other languages are not affected and can be used to highlight untrusted text.
Patches
This problem has been fixed in Prism v1.24.
