Socket.IO: Zero-attachment Memory Exhaustion

NVD Description

### Impact A specially crafted Socket.IO packet can make the server wait for a large number of binary attachments and buffer them, which can be exploited to make the server run out of memory. ### Patches | Version range | Used by | Fixed version | |------------------|--------------------------------------------|---------------| | `>=4.0.0 <4.2.7` | `socket.io@4.x` and `socket.io-client@4.x` | `4.2.7` | | `>=3.4.0 <3.4.5` | `socket.io@2.x` | `3.4.5` | | `<3.3.6` | `socket.io-client@2.x` | `3.3.6` | ### Workarounds There is no known workaround except upgrading to a safe version. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: - Open a discussion [here](https://github.com/socketio/socket.io/discussions)
