DoS due to excessively large websocket message in ws
Affected versions of ws
do not appropriately limit the size of incoming websocket payloads, which may result in a denial of service condition when the node process crashes after receiving a large payload.
Recommendation
Update to version 1.1.1 or later.
Alternatively, set the maxpayload
option for the ws
server to a value smaller than 256MB.
