HIGH 8.2 Microsoft

CVE-2022-21824

Due to the formatting logic of the "console.table()" function it was not safe to allow user controlled input to be passed to the "properties" parameter while simultaneously passing a plain object with at least one property as the first parameter which could be "__proto__". The prototype pollution has very limited control in that it only allows an empty string to be assigned to numerical keys of the object prototype.Node.js >= 12.22.9 >= 14.18.3 >= 16.13.2 and >= 17.3.1 use a null protoype for the object these properties are being assigned to.
