How to Fix CVE-2022-24717

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

@finastra/ssr-pages fixed: 0.1.5 
npm install @finastra/ssr-pages@0.1.5
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 @finastra/ssr-pages

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2022-24717, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @finastra/ssr-pages

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @finastra/ssr pages in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.1.5), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls @finastra/ssr-pages command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.
