  • GHSA-42xw-2xvc-qx8mDenial of Service in axios2019-05-29ghsa · osvUS

    Versions of `axios` prior to 0.18.1 are vulnerable to Denial of Service. If a request exceeds the `maxContentLength` property, the package prints an error but does not stop the request. This may cause high CPU usage and lead to Denial of Service. ## Recommendation Upgrade to 0.18.1 or later.
