CVE-2025-25285
February 14, 2025
@octokit/endpoint turns REST API endpoints into generic request options. Starting in version 4.1.0 and prior to version 10.1.3, by crafting specific "options" parameters, the "endpoint.parse(options)" call can be triggered, leading to a regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) attack. This causes the program to hang and results in high CPU utilization. The issue occurs in the "parse" function within the "parse.ts" file of the npm package "@octokit/endpoint". Version 10.1.3 contains a patch for the issue.
