Description

Koa is expressive middleware for Node.js using ES2017 async functions. Prior to versions 0.21.2, 1.7.1, 2.15.4, and 3.0.0-alpha.3, Koa uses an evil regex to parse the `X-Forwarded-Proto` and `X-Forwarded-Host` HTTP headers. This can be exploited to carry out a Denial-of-Service attack. Versions 0.21.2, 1.7.1, 2.15.4, and 3.0.0-alpha.3 fix the issue.

Affected configurations

• koajs koa (< 0.21.2) • koajs koa (>= 1.0.0 < 1.7.1) • koajs koa (>= 2.0.0 < 2.15.4) • koajs koa 3.0.0
