Practical Security Guides For Your Team

Your application uses an outdated version of Moment.js — a popular tool developers use to handle dates and times. This version has a known flaw where sending it an unusually long piece of text can cause it to get stuck processing, slowing your app to a crawl or making it temporarily unavailable to users. This only matters if your app accepts date input directly from users or external sources.

Your website uses an old version of AngularJS (a JavaScript framework) that has a known security flaw. Because of this flaw, an attacker could bypass a built-in safety filter and display images or content from unauthorized sources on your pages — a technique known as content spoofing. The bigger concern here is that AngularJS itself is no longer maintained by its creators, meaning this flaw will never receive an official fix.

Your application uses AngularJS 1.8.3, an outdated JavaScript framework that contains a known security flaw (CVE-2024-21490). An attacker can send a specially crafted request that causes your app to freeze or crash — making it unavailable to your customers. Importantly, AngularJS reached its official end of life in December 2021 and will never receive a patch for this issue.

Your website uses an outdated version of AngularJS (a JavaScript library) that contains a flaw in one of its built-in tools. An attacker could send a specially crafted request that causes your server or browser to get stuck doing unnecessary work, potentially slowing down or temporarily making your site unavailable to real users. Think of it like a prank caller who knows exactly what to say to put your receptionist on hold indefinitely.

Your website uses an old version of AngularJS (a JavaScript framework) that contains a flaw in how it processes certain web addresses. An attacker could send a specially crafted request that causes your server to spend a disproportionate amount of time processing it, potentially slowing down or temporarily making your app unresponsive for other users. This is a medium-severity issue — it's worth fixing, but it's not an emergency.

Your application uses an old version of Lodash (3.10.1), a popular JavaScript helper library. This version has a known security flaw that could allow an attacker with access to your system to run their own commands on your server. Upgrading to the latest version closes this gap completely.

Your application uses an outdated version of Lodash, a very common JavaScript helper library. This version has a known flaw that could allow an attacker who can send crafted input to your app to corrupt how your application handles data internally — potentially causing it to crash or behave in unexpected ways. Exploiting this requires specific conditions, but the fix is a straightforward library update.

Your application uses a very old version of Lodash (3.10.1), a popular JavaScript utility library, that has a known security flaw. An attacker who can send crafted data to your application could manipulate how JavaScript objects behave globally — think of it like someone secretly changing the rules of the game for every player at once. Upgrading to the latest version of Lodash closes this gap immediately.

Your application is using a very old version of lodash (3.10.1), a popular JavaScript helper library, that contains a known security flaw. An attacker who can send crafted data to your application could use this flaw to disrupt your service or, in some cases, interfere with how your application behaves. The fix is a straightforward library upgrade.

Your application uses an old version of a popular JavaScript helper library called Lodash (version 3.10.1) that contains a known security flaw. An attacker who can send crafted data to your app could manipulate how it processes objects internally, potentially disrupting its behavior. Upgrading to the latest version of Lodash takes a developer under an hour and fully resolves the issue.

Your website uses an outdated version of jQuery, a common JavaScript tool. This version has a known flaw: if your site makes background data requests to other websites, a compromised or malicious third-party server could send back code that runs automatically in your visitors' browsers. Think of it like ordering a package and having the delivery driver hand you something unexpected that activates the moment you open the door.

Your application uses an outdated version of Moment.js — a popular tool for handling dates and times — that contains a known security flaw. If any part of your app lets users choose a language or locale (e.g., 'English', 'French'), an attacker could craft a malicious input to access or manipulate files on your server that they shouldn't be able to touch. This only affects server-side usage, not purely browser-based code.
