Overview

@joplin/lib is a joplin core library.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling via the title input. An attacker can cause the application to consume excessive memory and terminate unexpectedly by submitting an extremely long string through the user interface or by sending a crafted HTTP POST request to the local web service API after obtaining a valid authentication token.

Note: This is only exploitable if the attacker has access to the local system or can compromise the user's authentication token.
