Exploiting the vulnerabilities

This app uses npm dependencies holding known vulnerabilities.

Here are the exploitable vulnerable packages:

• Mongoose - Buffer Memory Exposure
• st - Directory Traversal
• ms - ReDoS
• marked - XSS

The exploits directory includes a series of steps to demonstrate each one.

Fixing the issues

To find these flaws in this application (and in your own apps), run:

npm install -g snyk
snyk wizard

In this application, the default snyk wizard answers will fix all the issues. When the wizard is done, restart the application and run the exploits again to confirm they are fixed.
