Summary

This affects the package find-my-way before 2.2.5, from 3.0.0 and before 3.0.5. It accepts the Accept-Version' header by default, and if versioned routes are not being used, this could lead to a denial of service. Accept-Version can be used as an unkeyed header in a cache poisoning attack.

Patch / fix

  • npm find-my-way 2.2.5, 3.0.5
  • n/a find-my-way 2.2.5, 3.0.5
