On October 10th, 2023, I stumbled upon an arbitrary code execution vulnerability in Babel, which was subsequently assigned the identifier CVE-2023-45133. In this post, I’ll walk you through the journey of discovering and exploiting this intriguing flaw.

We just released Babel 7.23.0! 🎉

This release enables parsing top-level await (Stage 4 at the May meeting) and transforming ergonomic brand checks for private fields (Stage 4 at the July meeting) by default. There is also now support for the Hack-style pipeline operator. We also improved our TypeScript support, implementing transform support for const enums and namespace aliases, and we expanded our heuristics to add .displayName to React components created by React.createContext() (#13501).

Since 2018, Babel has been doing a funding experiment: can full time work on Babel be sustained? We've learned the answer might be no.
