Vulnerability from github – Published: 2017-10-24 18:33 – Updated: 2021-09-09 20:31

Summary

File Descriptor Leak Can Cause DoS Vulnerability in hapi

Details

Versions 2.0.x and 2.1.x of hapi are vulnerable to a denial of service attack via a file descriptor leak.

When triggered repeatedly, this leak will cause the server to run out of file descriptors and the node process to die. The effort required to take down a server depends on the process file descriptor limit. No other side effects or exploits have been identified.

Recommendation

Please upgrade to version 2.2.x or above as soon as possible.
