Affected packages

• npm axios: < 0.18.1 → fixed in 0.18.1

Description

Versions of `axios` prior to 0.18.1 are vulnerable to Denial of Service. If a request exceeds the `maxContentLength` property, the package prints an error but does not stop the request. This may cause high CPU usage and lead to Denial of Service. Recommendation Upgrade to 0.18.1 or later.
