eslint-plugin-security

ESLint rules for Node Security

This project will help identify potential security hotspots, but finds a lot of false positives which need triage by a human.

Installation

npm install --save-dev eslint-plugin-security

Usage

Add the following to your .eslintrc file:

"plugins": [
  "security"
],
"extends": [
  "plugin:security/recommended"
]

Developer guide

• Use GitHub pull requests.

• Conventions:

  • We use our custom ESLint setup.

  • Please implement a test for each new rule and use this command to be sure the new code respects the style guide and the tests keep passing:

    npm run-script cont-int
    

    Tests

    npm test
    

Rules

detect-unsafe-regex

Locates potentially unsafe regular expressions, which may take a very long time to run, blocking the event loop.

detect-buffer-noassert

Detects calls to buffer with noAssert flag set

From the Node.js API docs: "Setting noAssert to true skips validation of the offset. This allows the offset to be beyond the end of the Buffer."

detect-child-process

Detects instances of child_process & non-literal exec()

detect-disable-mustache-escape

Detects object.escapeMarkup = false, which can be used with some template engines to disable escaping of HTML entities. This can lead to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.

detect-eval-with-expression

Detects eval(variable) which can allow an attacker to run arbitary code inside your process.

detect-no-csrf-before-method-override

Detects Express csrf middleware setup before method-override middleware. This can allow GET requests (which are not checked by csrf) to turn into POST requests later.

detect-non-literal-fs-filename

Detects variable in filename argument of fs calls, which might allow an attacker to access anything on your system.

More information: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Path_Traversal

detect-non-literal-regexp

Detects RegExp(variable), which might allow an attacker to DOS your server with a long-running regular expression.

More information: https://blog.liftsecurity.io/2014/11/03/regular-expression-dos-and-node.js

detect-non-literal-require

Detects require(variable), which might allow an attacker to load and run arbitrary code, or access arbitrary files on disk.

detect-object-injection

Detects variable[key] as a left- or right-hand assignment operand.

detect-possible-timing-attacks

Detects insecure comparisons (==, !=, !== and ===), which check input sequentially.

More information: https://snyk.io/blog/node-js-timing-attack-ccc-ctf/

detect-pseudoRandomBytes

Detects if pseudoRandomBytes() is in use, which might not give you the randomness you need and expect.
