Redux version 0.6.1 is a minor patch release following closely after version 0.6.0, both iterations built upon the core idea of a fully hot-reloadable Flux architecture. Examining the package metadata reveals minimal code-level changes between the two; both versions share identical dependencies, development dependencies, license (MIT), repository details, and author information (Dan Abramov). Developers already familiar with Redux 0.6.0 will find a nearly seamless transition to 0.6.1. The underlying API and core functionalities remain consistent.
The key differentiator lies in the release date and potentially very minor bug fixes or documentation improvements within the code base. Released just over an hour apart, version 0.6.1 likely addresses any immediate issues discovered in 0.6.0 after its initial publication. For developers just starting with Redux, opting for version 0.6.1 is recommended as it likely incorporates the latest stability enhancements. While both versions target React 0.13.0, Babel 5.4.7, and Lodash 3.9.3, indicating a project still in its early stages, choosing the newer minor version offers a slight edge in terms of potential bug resolutions. The tight release timestamps indicate that developers should anticipate a smooth upgrade for those currently using Redux and seeking the most stable experience. Given the mature state of Redux today, these versions mainly serve as historical context.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 0.6.1 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.
Cross-Site Scripting in react
Versions of react prior to 0.14.0 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The package's createElement function fails to properly validate its input object, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser.
Upgrade to version 0.14.0 or later.
