EjsCVEs & Vulnerabilities
5 CVEs affecting Ejs products, tracked from the National Vulnerability Database, with CVSS/EPSS scores and exploitation status.
Most Affected Products
The ejs (aka Embedded JavaScript templates) package 3.1.6 for Node.js allows server-side template injection in settings[view options][outputFunctionName]. This is parsed as an internal option, and overwrites the outputFunctionName option with an arbitrary OS command (which is executed upon template compilation).
ejs v3.1.9 is vulnerable to server-side template injection. If the ejs file is controllable, template injection can be implemented through the configuration settings of the closeDelimiter parameter. NOTE: this is disputed by the vendor because the render function is not intended to be used with untrusted input.
nodejs ejs versions older than 2.5.3 is vulnerable to remote code execution due to weak input validation in ejs.renderFile() function
nodejs ejs version older than 2.5.5 is vulnerable to a denial-of-service due to weak input validation in the ejs.renderFile()
nodejs ejs version older than 2.5.5 is vulnerable to a Cross-site-scripting in the ejs.renderFile() resulting in code injection
