Versions of the package eta before 2.0.0 are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) by overwriting template engine configuration variables with view options received from The Express render API. **Note:** This is exploitable only for users who are rendering templates with user-defined data.
The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment.
