Found in base branch: main

Vulnerability Details

Axios is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). When a manipulated string is provided as input to the format method, the regular expression exhibits a time complexity of O(n^2). Server becomes unable to provide normal service due to the excessive cost and time wasted in processing vulnerable regular expressions.

Found in base branch: main

Vulnerability Details

Versions of the package follow-redirects before 1.15.4 are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation due to the improper handling of URLs by the url.parse() function. When new URL() throws an error, it can be manipulated to misinterpret the hostname. An attacker could exploit this weakness to redirect traffic to a malicious site, potentially leading to information disclosure, phishing attacks, or other security breaches.

Vulnerability Details

follow-redirects is an open source, drop-in replacement for Node's http and https modules that automatically follows redirects. In affected versions follow-redirects only clears authorization header during cross-domain redirect, but keep the proxy-authentication header which contains credentials too. This vulnerability may lead to credentials leak, but has been addressed in version 1.15.6. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Vulnerability Details

In axios before 1.7.8, lib/helpers/isURLSameOrigin.js does not use a URL object when determining an origin, and has a potentially unwanted setAttribute('href',href) call. NOTE: some parties feel that the code change only addresses a warning message from a SAST tool and does not fix a vulnerability.

Matched on "Regular Expression Denial of Service"

What is this? (2min video)

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks caused by Regular Expression which causes the system to hang or cause them to work very slowly when attacker sends a well-crafted input(exponentially related to input size).Denial of service attacks significantly degrade the service quality experienced by legitimate users. These attacks introduce large response delays, excessive losses, and service interruptions, resulting in direct impact on availability.

Micro-Learning Topic: Weak input validation (Detected by phrase)

Matched on "Improper Input Validation"

Injection flaws, such as SQL, NoSQL, OS, and LDAP injection, occur when untrusted data is sent to an interpreter as part of a command or query. The attacker’s hostile data can trick the interpreter into executing unintended commands or accessing data without proper authorization.

Micro-Learning Topic: Information disclosure (Detected by phrase)

Matched on "information disclosure"

Many web applications and APIs do not properly protect sensitive data, such as financial, healthcare, and PII. Attackers may steal or modify such weakly protected data to conduct credit card fraud, identity theft, or other crimes. Sensitive data may be compromised without extra protection, such as encryption at rest or in transit, and requires special precautions when exchanged with the browser.
