How to fix?

Upgrade org.webjars.npm:engine.io to version 6.6.10 or higher.

Overview

org.webjars.npm:engine.io is a WebJar for engine.io.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncaught Exception via the session upgrade handler in server.ts, where follow-up requests and transport upgrades do not validate that the Engine.IO protocol revision matches the one negotiated during the initial handshake. An attacker can send an upgrade request with a mismatched or missing EIO query parameter, causing a transport using a different parser and heartbeat mode to attach to an existing session, which disrupts the session and results in a crash.
