    modern-async's forEachSeries and forEachLimit functions do not limit the number of requests

    CVE-2021-41167 · GHSA-3pcq-34w5-p4g2

    Affected
    • npm modern-async < 1.0.4
    Fixed in
    1.0.4· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact This is a bug affecting two of the functions in this library: forEachSeries and forEachLimit. They should limit the concurrency of some actions but, in practice, they don't. Any code calling these functions will be written thinking they would limit the concurrency but they won't. This could lead to potential security issues in other projects. Patches The problem has been patched in 1.0.4. Workarounds There is no workaround aside from upgrading to 1.0.4.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.0.4 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
