CVE-2024-45813
ReDoS vulnerability in multiparametric routes in find-my-way
Reported by github_m · Published September 18, 2024
find-my-way is fixed in 9.0.1 and 8.2.2 (npm)
find-my-way is a fast, open source HTTP router, internally using a Radix Tree (aka compact Prefix Tree), supports route params, wildcards, and it's framework independent. A bad regular expression is generated any time one has two parameters within a single segment, when adding a `-` at the end, like `/:a-:b-`. This may cause a denial of service in some instances. Users are advised to update to find-my-way v8.2.2 or v9.0.1. or subsequent versions. There are no known workarounds for this issue.
