How to Fix CVE-2022-24762

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

sysend fixed: 1.10.0 
npm install sysend@1.10.0
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 sysend

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2022-24762, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls sysend

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Sysend in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.10.0), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls sysend 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-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. In Sysend, 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

### Impact Users that use Cross-Origin communication and send sensitive information make it possible for this data to be intercepted. This is not a big impact because it happens only on the same browser. ### Patches It has been patched in version 1.10.0 ### Workarounds The only workaround is to not send sensitive information with sysend messages.
