- Affected
- npm kerberos < 1.0.0
- Fixed in
- 1.0.0· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- Version of kerberos prior to 1.0.0 are vulnerable to DLL Injection. The package loads DLLs without specifying a full path. This may allow attackers to create a file with the same name in a folder that precedes the intended file in the DLL path search. Doing so would allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the machine. Recommendation Upgrade to version 1.0.0 or later.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.0.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
