Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-04-16 03:14 – Updated: 2021-08-23 15:25

Summary

Insecure Entropy Source - Math.random() in node-uuid

Details

Affected versions of node-uuid consistently fall back to using Math.random as an entropy source instead of crypto, which may result in guessable UUID's.

Recommendation

Update to version 1.4.4 or later.

Severity ?

7.5 (High)
