CVE-2022-21676 - High Severity Vulnerability
The realtime engine behind Socket.IO. Provides the foundation of a bidirectional connection between client and server
Library home page: https://registry.npmjs.org/engine.io/-/engine.io-6.0.0.tgz
Path to dependency file: /package.json
Path to vulnerable library: /node_modules/engine.io/package.json
Dependency Hierarchy: - socket.io-4.3.1.tgz (Root Library) - :x: **engine.io-6.0.0.tgz** (Vulnerable Library)
Found in base branch: 3.0.0
Engine.IO is the implementation of transport-based cross-browser/cross-device bi-directional communication layer for Socket.IO. A specially crafted HTTP request can trigger an uncaught exception on the Engine.IO server, thus killing the Node.js process. This impacts all the users of the `engine.io` package starting from version `4.0.0`, including those who uses depending packages like `socket.io`. Versions prior to `4.0.0` are not impacted. A fix has been released for each major branch, namely `4.1.2` for the `4.x.x` branch, `5.2.1` for the `5.x.x` branch, and `6.1.1` for the `6.x.x` branch. There is no known workaround except upgrading to a safe version.
