Insecure Default Configuration in airbrake

- Affected
- npm airbrake < 0.4.0
- Fixed in
- 0.4.0· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- Affected versions of airbrake default to sending environment variables over an unencrypted HTTP connection. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible for them to capture and read these environment variables, which may result in leaking sensitive information. Recommendation Update to version 0.4.0 or later, or upgrade from the now-deprecated airbrake module to its replacement, airbrake-js.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.4.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
