Bump ws and socket.io

[dependabot]

Bumps ws to 7.4.6 and updates ancestor dependency socket.io. These dependencies need to be updated together.

Updates ws from 6.1.4 to 7.4.6

Release notes

Sourced from ws's releases.

7.4.6

Bug fixes

• Fixed a ReDoS vulnerability (00c425ec).

A specially crafted value of the Sec-Websocket-Protocol header could be used to significantly slow down a ws server.

for (const length of [1000, 2000, 4000, 8000, 16000, 32000]) {
  const value = 'b' + ' '.repeat(length) + 'x';
  const start = process.hrtime.bigint();
value.trim().split(/ *, */);
const end = process.hrtime.bigint();
console.log('length = %d, time = %f ns', length, end - start);
}

The vulnerability was responsibly disclosed along with a fix in private by Robert McLaughlin from University of California, Santa Barbara.

In vulnerable versions of ws, the issue can be mitigated by reducing the maximum allowed length of the request headers using the --max-http-header-size=size and/or the maxHeaderSize options.

7.4.5

Bug fixes

• UTF-8 validation is now done even if utf-8-validate is not installed (23ba6b29).
• Fixed an edge case where websocket.close() and websocket.terminate() did not close the connection (67e25ff5).

7.4.4

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug that could cause the process to crash when using the permessage-deflate extension (92774377).

7.4.3

Bug fixes

• The deflate/inflate stream is now reset instead of reinitialized when context takeover is disabled (#1840).

7.4.2

Updates socket.io from 2.3.0 to 2.5.0

Release notes

Sourced from socket.io's releases.

2.5.0

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️

The default value of the maxHttpBufferSize option has been decreased from 100 MB to 1 MB, in order to prevent attacks by denial of service.

Security advisory: GHSA-j4f2-536g-r55m

Bug Fixes

• fix race condition in dynamic namespaces (05e1278)
• ignore packet received after disconnection (22d4bdf)
• only set 'connected' to true after middleware execution (226cc16)
• prevent the socket from joining a room after disconnection (f223178)

Links:

• Diff: socketio/socket.io@2.4.1...2.5.0
• Client release: 2.5.0
• engine.io version: ~3.6.0 (diff)
• ws version: ~7.4.2

2.4.1

This release reverts the breaking change introduced in 2.4.0 (socketio/socket.io@f78a575).

If you are using Socket.IO v2, you should explicitly allow/disallow cross-origin requests:

• without CORS (server and client are served from the same domain):

const io = require("socket.io")(httpServer, {
  allowRequest: (req, callback) => {
    callback(null, req.headers.origin === undefined); // cross-origin requests will not be allowed
  }
});

• with CORS (server and client are served from distinct domains):

io.origins(["http://localhost:3000"]); // for local development
io.origins(["https://example.com"]);

In any case, please consider upgrading to Socket.IO v3, where this security issue is now fixed (CORS is disabled by default).

Reverts

• fix(security): do not allow all origins by default (a169050)
