CVE-2020-24807
File restriction bypass in socket.io-file
Impact
All versions of `socket.io-file`are vulnerable to a file restriction bypass. The validation for valid file types only happens on the client-side, which allows an attacker to intercept the Websocket request post-validation and alter the `name` value to upload any file types. No fix is currently available. Consider using an alternative package until a fix is made available.
