Overview

org.webjars.npm:undici is an An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity in the interceptors.cache() interceptor, whose skip-list construction subtracts the configured methods from the safe-method set instead of excluding the unsafe methods (POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE), and whose canCacheResponse storage gate does not validate the method. An attacker can have a fabricated response served for later state-changing requests, which then never reach the origin, by returning from an untrusted origin a heuristically cacheable response such as a 404 that carries an explicit Cache-Control: max-age directive to an unsafe method. This applies under the default cache configuration (methods: ['GET']) and requires the origin to return a heuristically cacheable response bearing an explicit cache-control directive.
