How to Fix GHSA-9q64-mpxx-87fg

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Ecstatic dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

ecstatic fixed: 2.2.2 
npm install ecstatic@2.2.2
ecstatic fixed: 3.3.2 
npm install ecstatic@3.3.2
ecstatic fixed: 4.1.2 
npm install ecstatic@4.1.2
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls ecstatic

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by GHSA-9q64-mpxx-87fg, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls ecstatic

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Ecstatic in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.2.2), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls ecstatic command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-601: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect'), where the web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect. In Ecstatic, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Versions of `ecstatic` prior to 4.1.2, 3.3.2 or 2.2.2 are vulnerable to Open Redirect. The package fails to validate redirects, allowing attackers to craft requests that result in an `HTTP 301` redirect to any other domains. ## Recommendation If using `ecstatic` 4.x, upgrade to 4.1.2 or later. If using `ecstatic` 3.x, upgrade to 3.3.2 or later. If using `ecstatic` 2.x, upgrade to 2.2.2 or later.
