All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.0.0 of the package
Resource Exhaustion Denial of Service in http-proxy-agent
A flaw was found in http-proxy-agent, prior to version 2.1.0. It was discovered http-proxy-agent passes an auth option to the Buffer constructor without proper sanitization. This could result in a Denial of Service through the usage of all available CPU resources and data exposure through an uninitialized memory leak in setups where an attacker could submit typed input to the auth parameter.
Denial of Service in http-proxy-agent
Versions of http-proxy-agent before 2.1.0 are vulnerable to denial of service and uninitialized memory leak when unsanitized options are passed to Buffer. An attacker may leverage these unsanitized options to consume system resources.
Update to version 2.1.0 or later.
Denial of Service in https-proxy-agent
Versions of https-proxy-agent before 2.2.0 are vulnerable to denial of service. This is due to unsanitized options (proxy.auth) being passed to Buffer().
Update to version 2.2.0 or later.
Machine-In-The-Middle in https-proxy-agent
Versions of https-proxy-agent prior to 2.2.3 are vulnerable to Machine-In-The-Middle. The package fails to enforce TLS on the socket if the proxy server responds the to the request with a HTTP status different than 200. This allows an attacker with access to the proxy server to intercept unencrypted communications, which may include sensitive information such as credentials.
Upgrade to version 3.0.0 or 2.2.3.
