Summary
Insecure Default Configuration in tesseract.js
Details

Versions of tesseract.js prior to 1.0.19 default to using a third-party proxy. Requests may be proxied through crossorigin.me which clearly states is not suitable for production use. This may lead to instability and privacy violations.

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 1.0.19 or later.
