If you have any questions or comments about this advisory:
Regular Expression Denial of Service in underscore.string
Versions of underscore.string
prior to 3.3.5 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS).
The function unescapeHTML
is vulnerable to ReDoS due to an overly-broad regex. The slowdown is approximately 2s for 50,000 characters but grows exponentially with larger inputs.
Upgrade to version 3.3.5 or higher.
