The check for prototype pollution properties is correct, but it should also include 'prototype' to ensure comprehensive protection against prototype pollution attacks.

Fixes https://github.com/github/safe-settings/security/code-scanning/1
To fix the prototype pollution issue, we need to ensure that properties like
__proto__andconstructorare not copied from thesourceobject to theadditionsobject. This can be achieved by adding a check to skip these properties during the merge process.compareDeepfunction to include a check that skips the__proto__andconstructorproperties.lib/mergeDeep.jsfile, specifically in the loop that iterates over thesourceobject's properties.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix.
