Can you backport the prototype pollution fix to v11?

[dstapleton92]

Clear and concise description of the problem

Hi there! The recent prototype pollution fix in this commit was only released for v12. My team is planning to upgrade our projects to v12, but it's going to take us a bit longer because the work is distributed across many repos and the effort has to be synchronized. Would it be possible to backport that fix to v11?

I understand not developing new features for v11, but it seems like the case could be made to backport a fix for a critical vulnerability in a version less than a year old.

Thanks for the consideration!

Suggested solution

Apply the same fix to the v11 code and publish a new 11.x.x release
