node-underscore and libjs-underscore are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution via the template function, particulary when a variable property is passed as an argument as it is not sanitized.
For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.3~dfsg-1+deb9u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your underscore packages.
For the detailed security status of underscore please refer to its security tracker page at:
