Therefore it was possible for users of legacy, pre-2017 browsers who navigate to a page serving `fides.js` to download and execute malicious scripts from the `polyfill.io` domain when the domain was compromised and serving malware. No exploitation of `fides.js` via `polyfill.io` has been identified as of time of publication.\n\nThe vulnerability has been patched in Fides version `2.39.1`. Users are advised to upgrade to this version or later to secure their systems against this threat. On Thursday, June 27, 2024, Cloudflare and Namecheap intervened at a domain level to ensure `polyfill.io` and its subdomains could not resolve to the compromised service, rendering this vulnerability unexploitable. Prior to the domain level intervention, there were no server-side workarounds and the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts of this vulnerability were high. Clients could ensure they were not affected by using a modern browser that supported the fetch standard."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "Fides es una plataforma de ingenier\u00eda de privacidad de c\u00f3digo abierto. `fides.js`, un script del lado del cliente utilizado para interactuar con las funciones de gesti\u00f3n de consentimiento de Fides, utiliz\u00f3 el dominio `polyfill.io` en un caso l\u00edmite muy limitado, cuando detect\u00f3 un navegador heredado como IE11 que no admit\u00eda el est\u00e1ndar de recuperaci\u00f3n. Por lo tanto, era posible que los usuarios de navegadores heredados anteriores a 2017 que navegaban a una p\u00e1gina que serv\u00eda `fides.js` descargaran y ejecutaran scripts maliciosos desde el dominio `polyfill.io` cuando el dominio estaba comprometido y serv\u00eda malware.
