    <title>GHSA-v9p9-hfj2-hcw8 — Undici has Unhandled Exception in WebSocket Client Due to Invalid server_max_window_bits Validation</title>
    <updated>2026-09-30T19:19:27.494330+00:00</updated>

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> npm: undici</p>
<p>### Impact</p>
<p>The undici WebSocket client is vulnerable to a denial-of-service attack due to improper validation of the `server_max_window_bits` parameter in the permessage-deflate extension. When a WebSocket client connects to a server, it automatically advertises support for permessage-deflate compression. A malicious server can respond with an out-of-range `server_max_window_bits` value (outside zlib's valid range of 8-15). When the server subsequently sends a compressed frame, the client attempts to create a zlib InflateRaw instance with the invalid windowBits value, causing a synchronous RangeError exception that is not caught, resulting in immediate process termination.</p>
<p>The vulnerability exists because:</p>
<p>1. The `isValidClientWindowBits()` function only validates that the value contains ASCII digits, not that it falls within the valid range 8-15
2. The `createInflateRaw()` call is not wrapped in a try-catch block
3. The resulting exception propagates up through the call stack and crashes the Node.js process</p>
<p>### Patches
_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_</p>
<p>### Workarounds
_Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?_</p></div>
