Advisories for Npm/Connect package

node-connects before 2.8.2 has cross site scripting in Sencha Labs Connect middleware (vulnerability due to incomplete fix for CVE-2013-7370)

node-connect before 2.8.1 has XSS in the Sencha Labs Connect middleware

connect node module suffers from a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to a lack of validation of file in directory.js middleware.

The middleware overwrites req.method with the req.body['_method'] value. When you don't catch the error it responds with a default error msg: "Cannot [METHOD] [URL]" . Because this is not enough sanitized, you can force a Cross-Site Scripting in the response.
