Redux version 0.11.1 is a minor patch release following version 0.11.0, both versions aiming to provide a fully hot-reloadable Flux architecture. Examining the changes between these two releases reveals subtle but important updates primarily focused on dependency versions. In version 0.11.1, the babel-runtime dependency is updated to ^5.5.8 from ^5.4.7 in the older 0.11.0 release. Similarly, the babel, and babel-core dependencies also see updates to version ^5.5.8 from ^5.4.7. Furthermore, babel-eslint moves from ^3.1.11 to ^3.1.15 and babel-loader from ^5.1.2 to ^5.1.4.
For developers using Redux, these incremental updates mean that version 0.11.1 incorporates important bug fixes and improvements within the Babel toolchain, ensuring greater compatibility and stability during development. These updates can be related to improved ES6 support, better error reporting during transpilation, and more consistent behavior across different environments. While the core Redux API remains consistent between these minor versions, upgrading to 0.11.1 ensures developers benefit from the latest tooling enhancements, minimizing potential issues related to JavaScript compilation and linting. The release date also provides context; version 0.11.1 arrived shortly after 0.11.0 suggesting a quick response to address any immediate issues found in the initial release. Both versions maintain the same core dependencies like envify, invariant, and lodash, so the fundamental behavior of Redux isn't altered.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 0.11.1 of the package
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash before 4.17.12 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The function defaultsDeep allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object via {constructor: {prototype: {...}}} causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.12 or later.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash before 4.17.5 are vulnerable to prototype pollution.
The vulnerable functions are 'defaultsDeep', 'merge', and 'mergeWith' which allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object via __proto__ causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.5 or later.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash before 4.17.11 are vulnerable to prototype pollution.
The vulnerable functions are 'defaultsDeep', 'merge', and 'mergeWith' which allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object via {constructor: {prototype: {...}}} causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
Update to version 4.17.11 or later.
Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in lodash
lodash prior to 4.7.11 is affected by: CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption. The impact is: Denial of service. The component is: Date handler. The attack vector is: Attacker provides very long strings, which the library attempts to match using a regular expression. The fixed version is: 4.7.11.
Prototype Pollution in lodash
Versions of lodash prior to 4.17.19 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The functions pick, set, setWith, update, updateWith, and zipObjectDeep allow a malicious user to modify the prototype of Object if the property identifiers are user-supplied. Being affected by this issue requires manipulating objects based on user-provided property values or arrays.
This vulnerability causes the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects and may lead to Denial of Service or Code Execution under specific circumstances.
Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in lodash
All versions of package lodash prior to 4.17.21 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the toNumber, trim and trimEnd functions.
Steps to reproduce (provided by reporter Liyuan Chen):
var lo = require('lodash');
function build_blank(n) {
var ret = "1"
for (var i = 0; i < n; i++) {
ret += " "
}
return ret + "1";
}
var s = build_blank(50000) var time0 = Date.now();
lo.trim(s)
var time_cost0 = Date.now() - time0;
console.log("time_cost0: " + time_cost0);
var time1 = Date.now();
lo.toNumber(s) var time_cost1 = Date.now() - time1;
console.log("time_cost1: " + time_cost1);
var time2 = Date.now();
lo.trimEnd(s);
var time_cost2 = Date.now() - time2;
console.log("time_cost2: " + time_cost2);
Command Injection in lodash
lodash versions prior to 4.17.21 are vulnerable to Command Injection via the template function.
