Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from the recursive merging logic in the copy function. The pre-patch code (shown in commit 578b0bc) lacked a check for 'proto' key during property merging. This allowed attackers to manipulate Object.prototype through specially crafted objects. The fix explicitly checks for 'proto' key in the copy function, confirming this was the vulnerable code path. The CWE-471 (MAID) classification further supports this analysis as it directly relates to prototype pollution via property injection.
