CVE-2026-97724

MEDIUMCVSS 4.3/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-97724 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. A prototype pollution vulnerability in Software Mansion React Native Worklets before 0.12.2 allows an attacker-controlled object containing a __proto__ property to modify the prototype of an object created during serialization in clonePlainJSObject in packages/react-native-worklets/src/memory/serializable.native.ts. When affected data is subsequently processed by React Native Worklets, the malformed serialized object can cause the React Native application to crash.

Description

A prototype pollution vulnerability in Software Mansion React Native Worklets before 0.12.2 allows an attacker-controlled object containing a __proto__ property to modify the prototype of an object created during serialization in clonePlainJSObject in packages/react-native-worklets/src/memory/serializable.native.ts. When affected data is subsequently processed by React Native Worklets, the malformed serialized object can cause the React Native application to crash. This can result in a remotely triggered denial of service in applications that pass attacker-controlled data through the affected serialization path. In applications where the attacker-controlled data is persisted, the denial of service may persist across application restarts or repeated attempts to access the affected content.
