ws is an open source WebSocket client and server library for Node.js. A
specially crafted value of the Sec-Websocket-Protocol
header can be used
to significantly slow down a ws server. The vulnerability has been fixed in
[email protected]
(https://github.com/websockets/ws/commit/00c425ec77993773d823f018f64a5c44e17023ff).
In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated by reducing the
maximum allowed length of the request headers using the
--max-http-header-size=size
and/or the
maxHeaderSize
options.
