Summary

SUCHMOKUO node-worker-threads-pool denial of service Vulnerability

Details

An issue was discovered in StaticPool in SUCHMOKUO node-worker-threads-pool version 1.4.3 that allows attackers to cause a denial of service.

This can be mitigated by manually creating a timeout. For example:

const { StaticPool } = require(\"node-worker-threads-pool\");

    const staticPool = new StaticPool({
 size: 1,
 task: (n) => {
 while (n) {
 console.log(\"a\");
 }
 return n;
 }
});

 staticPool.createExecutor().setTimeout(10).exec(1).then((result) => {
 console.log(\"result from thread pool:\", result);
}).catch(() => console.error('timeout'));
