CVE-2014-10064 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Echo:latest node-qs to version 2.2.4-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream node-qs package and not the node-qs package as distributed by Echo.
See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.
The qs module before 1.0.0 does not have an option or default for specifying object depth and when parsing a string representing a deeply nested object will block the event loop for long periods of time. An attacker could leverage this to cause a temporary denial-of-service condition, for example, in a web application, other requests would not be processed while this blocking is occurring.
