CVE-2022-1650
CVSS v2.0
9.4
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
eventsource/eventsource versions prior to 2.0.2
Description
The issue is related to insufficient protection of sensitive data, allowing a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to protected information. This is due to the improper removal of sensitive information before storage or transfer. When fetching a URL with a link to an external site, users' cookies and authorization headers are leaked to the third-party application, violating the same-origin-policy.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.0.2, update to version 2.0.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive information and sanitizing headers when redirecting to external sites to minimize the risk of exploitation.
