WS-2020-0208 - Medium Severity Vulnerability
Syntax highlighting with language autodetection.
Library home page: https://registry.npmjs.org/highlight.js/-/highlight.js-9.18.1.tgz
Path to dependency file: /package.json
Path to vulnerable library: /node_modules/highlight.js/package.json
Dependency Hierarchy: - typedoc-0.15.0-0.tgz (Root Library) - :x: **highlight.js-9.18.1.tgz** (Vulnerable Library)
Found in base branch: master
If are you are using Highlight.js to highlight user-provided data you are possibly vulnerable. On the client-side (in a browser or Electron environment) risks could include lengthy freezes or crashes... On the server-side infinite freezes could occur... effectively preventing users from accessing your app or service (ie, Denial of Service). This is an issue with grammars shipped with the parser (and potentially 3rd party grammars also), not the parser itself. If you are using Highlight.js with any of the following grammars you are vulnerable. If you are using highlightAuto to detect the language (and have any of these grammars registered) you are vulnerable.
