    Insecure Defaults Allow MITM Over TLS in engine.io-client

    CVE-2016-10536 · GHSA-4r4m-hjwj-43p8

    Affected
    • npm engine.io-client < 1.6.9
    Fixed in
    1.6.9· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Affected versions of engine.io-client do not verify certificates by default, and as such may be vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle attacks. The vulnerability is related to the way that node.js handles the rejectUnauthorized setting. If the value is something that evaluates to false, such as undefined or null, certificate verification will be disabled. Recommendation Update to version 1.6.9 or later. If you are unable to upgrade, ensure all calls to socket.io to have a rejectedUnauthorized: true flag.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.6.9 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
