Open jschaefer77 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Our vulnerability scanner detected a vulnerability because of an old dependency of file-type lib.

Stoplight elements > http-spec > postman-collection > file-type

Current used version of file-type is very old version 3.9.0! Version 17.1.3 is already available.

Description of our vulnerability scanner: An issue was discovered in the file-type package before 16.5.4 and 17.x before 17.1.3 for Node.js. A malformed MKV file could cause the file type detector to get caught in an infinite loop. This would make the application become unresponsive and could be used to cause a DoS attack.

  • Version used: 7.6.1
