## Overview

This affects the package json before 10.0.0. It is possible to inject arbritary commands using the parseLookup function.

## Affected

- `json < 10.0.0`
- `commerce_guided_search = 11.3.2`
- `financial_services_crime_and_compliance_management_studio = 8.0.8.2.0`
- `financial_services_crime_and_compliance_management_studio = 8.0.8.3.0`
- `financial_services_regulatory_reporting_with_agilereporter = 8.0.9.6.3`
- `timesten_in-memory_database < 21.1.1.1.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `json 10.0.0`
- `timesten_in-memory_database 21.1.1.1.0`
