GHSA-8225-6cvr-8pqpMediumCVSS 5.9
superagent vulnerable to zip bomb attacks
🔗 CVE IDs covered (1)
📋 Description
Affected versions of superagent do not check the post-decompression size of ZIP compressed HTTP responses prior to decompressing. This results in the package being vulnerable to a ZIP bomb attack, where an extremely small ZIP file becomes many orders of magnitude larger when decompressed.
This may result in unrestrained CPU/Memory/Disk consumption, causing a denial of service condition.
Recommendation
Update to version 3.7.0 or later.
