CWE-248  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade undici to version 7.30.1, 8.12.2 or higher.

Overview

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

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncaught Exception via the DecompressHandler in lib/interceptor/decompress.js, where an uncaught exception thrown by a downstream handler during onResponseData or onResponseEnd propagates unhandled rather than being converged into a per-request error. An attacker or a misbehaving downstream handler can trigger this condition to crash the request pipeline, causing a denial of service.
