Advisories for Npm/Node-Opcua package

2022

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

The package node-opcua before 2.74.0 is vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when bypassing the limitations for excessive memory consumption by sending multiple CloseSession requests with the deleteSubscription parameter equal to False.

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

The package node-opcua before 2.74.0 is vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) due to a missing limitation on the number of received chunks - per single session or in total for all concurrent sessions. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending an unlimited number of huge chunks (e.g. 2GB each) without sending the Final closing chunk.
