CVE NOT AVAILABLE CWE-295  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade @graphql-codegen/cli to version 1.2.0 or higher.

Overview

@graphql-codegen/cli is a CLI client for GraphQL Code Generator which can be utilized to generates code out for GraphQL schema.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Default Configuration. The NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable is set to the value 0 in all versions of the package disabling certificate verification. This flaw can be exploited by a Man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacker, resulting in an attacker able to view a victim's HTTPS traffic.

It should be noted that during the release of graphql-code-generator version 1.1.0, the CLI component was amended to be a separate package "@graphql-codegen/cli".
