CVE-2024-45296 – path-to-regexp outputs backtracking regular expressions

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-45296

path-to-regexp turns path strings into a regular expressions. In certain cases, path-to-regexp will output a regular expression that can be exploited to cause poor performance. Because JavaScript is single threaded and regex matching runs on the main thread, poor performance will block the event loop and lead to a DoS. The bad regular expression is generated any time you have two parameters within a single segment, separated by something that is not a period (.). For users of 0.1, upgrade to 0.1.10. • https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp/commit/29b96b4a1de52824e1ca0f49a701183cc4ed476f https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp/commit/60f2121e9b66b7b622cc01080df0aabda9eedee6 https://github.com/pillarjs/path-to-regexp/security/advisories/GHSA-9wv6-86v2-598j • CWE-1333: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity •
