Echo: ip-address: security update to 10.7.1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473535

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- ip-address is a library for parsing and manipulating IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in JavaScript. Prior to
10.7.1, the Address6 constructor, Address6.isValid, and parse code in src/ipv6.ts accept unbounded strings
and expand invalid characters through RE_BAD_CHARACTERS into large diagnostics. Material impact occurs
only when an application accepts a very large attacker-controlled field and passes it to Address6 parsing
without an earlier length bound. Common URL and header limits, and common body-parser defaults, generally
constrain the effect; common defaults typically exclude 32 MiB fields. Megabyte-scale fields can cause a
synchronous stall and high transient memory use, approximately 16 MiB can trigger an invalid string length
exception, and process termination occurs at approximately 32 MiB. The affected entry points include
Address6.isValid and construction paths that reach parse. This issue is fixed in version 10.7.1.
(CVE-2026-101911)

Solution

Update the ip-address library and its related packages to version 10.7.1 or later.
