An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-10064 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- qs (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 1.0.0\n- qs (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 1.0.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-10064/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-10064/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-10064","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-10064/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-10064","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-10064","GHSA-f9cm-p3w6-xvr3","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-10064"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Node.js query string parser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a temporary denial of service in web applications by sending deeply nested objects that block the event loop in the qs library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"qs","vendor":"qs_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null},{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"The qs module before 1.0.0 does not have an option or default for specifying object depth and when parsing a string representing a deeply nested object will block the event loop for long periods of time.
