Details

Remote Memory Exposure in openwhisk Versions of `openwhisk` before 3.3.1 are vulnerable to remote memory exposure. When a number is passed to `api_key`, affected versions of `openwhisk` allocate an uninitialized buffer and send that over network in Authorization header (base64-encoded). Proof of concept: ```js var openwhisk = require('openwhisk'); var options = { apihost: '127.0.0.1:1433', api_key: USERSUPPLIEDINPUT // number }; var ow = openwhisk(options); ow.actions.invoke({actionName: 'sample'}).then(result => console.log(result)) ``` ## Recommendation Update to version 3.3.1 or later.
