Denial of Service in soketi

High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Jan 7, 2022 in soketi/soketi • Updated Feb 3, 2023

Package

npm @soketi/soketi (npm)

Affected versions

< 0.24.1

Patched versions

0.24.1

Description

Impact

What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?

There was a wrong behavior when reading POST requests, making the server crash if it couldn't read the body. In case a POST request was sent to any endpoint of the server with an empty body, even unauthenticated with the Pusher Protocol, it would simply just crash the server for trying to send a response after the request closed.

All users that run the server are affected by it and it's highly recommended to upgrade to the latest patch.

Patches

Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?

Updating to at least 0.24.1 or the latest version.

Workarounds

Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?

No. Upgrading is the only solution.
