Upgrade to version 3.0.2 or higher.
Overview
call is the primary HTTP router of the hapi framework.
The vulnerability arise from undefined values inside a path (last segment being an exception) making their way into components that do not care for values being undefined (eg. the database layer).
For example, the request URI /delete/company// may incorrectly match a route looking for /delete/company/{company}/. By itself, the bad match is not a vulnerability. However, depending on the remaining logic in the application, such a bad match may result in skipping a protection mechanisms. In the above example, if the route translates to a DB delete command, it might delete all the companies from the db.
