Description
Microsoft ChakraCore allows an attacker to bypass Control Flow Guard (CFG) in conjunction with another vulnerability to run arbitrary code on a target system, due to how the Chakra scripting engine handles accessing memory, aka "Scripting Engine Security Feature Bypass".

How to fix
Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.
Microsoft.ChakraCore NuGet → 1.8.0
