Scriban: Template Writes to Arbitrary CLR Properties via `TypedObjectAccessor` (Mass Assignment + `private` / `init` / `internal` Setter Bypass)
GitHub lists this reviewed advisory for Scriban. Published version ranges and source prerequisites are shown below; this is not an inspection of a visitor’s application.
This report has not inspected your inventory, configuration, deployed build, reachability or evidence. A catalog listing and a severity score do not establish exposure or compromise.

Description When a host pushes a CLR object into a Scriban TemplateContext via the standard, documented pattern — var so = new ScriptObject(); so["user"] = currentUser; // direct CLR reference context.PushGlobal(so); — TypedObjectAccessor exposes every public-getter property for both reading and writing, and writes land on the live host object and persist after Render() returns. The write path performs no CanWrite and no setter-visibility check, producing two related but distinct weaknesses: (A) Mass assignment of public setters — CWE-915 (originally F-002). Any { get; set; } property is writable from template code ({{ user.is_admin = true }}, {{ order.total_price = 0 }}). This is "surprising but technically consistent with the setter being public" — and crucially, Scriban offers no way to expose such a property read-only, because MemberFilter is read/write-symmetric. (B) Access-

What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
