A flaw was found in the Node.js WebSocket library (ws). A request with several headers exceeding the ‘server.maxHeadersCount’ threshold could be used to crash a ws server, leading to a denial of service.
Mitigation
The issue can be mitigated by reducing the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the --max-http-header-size=size or the maxHeaderSize options so that no more headers than the server.maxHeadersCount limit can be sent. The issue can be mitigated also by seting server.maxHeadersCount to 0.
