headless-browser-lite downloads Resources over HTTP

Published Jun 1, 2018 · Updated Sep 17, 2024 · Assigned by hackerone

Description

headless-browser-lite is a minimal npm installer for phantomjs and slimerjs with no external dependencies. headless-browser-lite downloads binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested binary with an attacker controlled binary if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.
