Rollup Plugin PostCSS offers seamless integration between Rollup and PostCSS, enabling developers to effortlessly process CSS files within their JavaScript bundles. Comparing version 1.2.5 with the preceding stable version 1.2.4, the core functionality and dependencies remain largely consistent, ensuring continued stability and compatibility for existing users. Both versions leverage popular PostCSS plugins like cssnano for CSS optimization and autoprefixer for vendor prefixing, streamlining the development workflow. They also share dependencies such as postcss-load-config for configuration management, postcss-modules for CSS Modules support, and style-inject for injecting styles into the document.
The key difference lies in an updated dependency in the devDependencies: bili has been updated from version 1.6.0 to 1.6.2. While this seemingly minor change might not directly impact end-users, it signifies an update to the build tooling used by the plugin developers. This could potentially involve improvements in the build process, enhanced performance during development, or bug fixes related to the build environment. This highlights the ongoing maintenance and refinement of the plugin. Consider upgrading to 1.2.5 to benefit from any under-the-hood build improvements, ensuring you're using the most up-to-date version of the plugin. Always review dependency update notes for potential build changes, even if the impact on functionality is seemingly minor.
All the vulnerabilities related to the version 1.2.5 of the package
Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)
The is-svg package 2.1.0 through 4.2.1 for Node.js uses a regular expression that is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). If an attacker provides a malicious string, is-svg will get stuck processing the input.
ReDOS in IS-SVG
A vulnerability was discovered in IS-SVG version 4.3.1 and below where a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDOS) occurs if the application is provided and checks a crafted invalid SVG string.
Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDOS)
In the npm package color-string, there is a ReDos (Regular Expression Denial of Service) vulnerability regarding an exponential time complexity for
linearly increasing input lengths for hwb() color strings.
Strings reaching more than 5000 characters would see several milliseconds of processing time; strings reaching more than 50,000 characters began seeing 1500ms (1.5s) of processing time.
The cause was due to a the regular expression that parses hwb() strings - specifically, the hue value - where the integer portion of the hue value used a 0-or-more quantifier shortly thereafter followed by a 1-or-more quantifier.
This caused excessive backtracking and a cartesian scan, resulting in exponential time complexity given a linear increase in input length.
Regular Expression Denial of Service in postcss
The package postcss versions before 7.0.36 or between 8.0.0 and 8.2.13 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via getAnnotationURL() and loadAnnotation() in lib/previous-map.js. The vulnerable regexes are caused mainly by the sub-pattern
\/\*\s* sourceMappingURL=(.*)
var postcss = require("postcss")
function build_attack(n) {
var ret = "a{}"
for (var i = 0; i < n; i++) {
ret += "/*# sourceMappingURL="
}
return ret + "!";
}
postcss.parse('a{}/*# sourceMappingURL=a.css.map */') for (var i = 1; i <= 500000; i++) {
if (i % 1000 == 0) {
var time = Date.now();
var attack_str = build_attack(i) try {
postcss.parse(attack_str) var time_cost = Date.now() - time;
console.log("attack_str.length: " + attack_str.length + ": " + time_cost + " ms");
} catch (e) {
var time_cost = Date.now() - time;
console.log("attack_str.length: " + attack_str.length + ": " + time_cost + " ms");
}
}
}
PostCSS line return parsing error
An issue was discovered in PostCSS before 8.4.31. It affects linters using PostCSS to parse external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). There may be \r discrepancies, as demonstrated by @font-face{ font:(\r/*);} in a rule.
This vulnerability affects linters using PostCSS to parse external untrusted CSS. An attacker can prepare CSS in such a way that it will contains parts parsed by PostCSS as a CSS comment. After processing by PostCSS, it will be included in the PostCSS output in CSS nodes (rules, properties) despite being originally included in a comment.
