Signal K Server's WebSocket Login Endpoint Lacks Rate Limiting (Credential Brute-Force)

Summary The HTTP login endpoints POST /login and POST /signalk/v1/auth/login are protected by express-rate-limit default: 100 attempts per 10-minute window, configurable via HTTPRATELIMITS. The WebSocket login path — sending login: username, password messages over an established WebSocket...

CVE-2026-30827

A flaw was found in express-rate-limit. The default key generator incorrectly applies IPv6 subnet masking to IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses, which are used when an IPv4 client connects to a dual-stack server. This misconfiguration causes all IPv4 traffic to be treated as a single entity for rate...

CVE-2026-30827 express-rate-limit: IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses bypass per-client rate limiting (all IPv4 clients share one bucket on dual-stack servers)

express-rate-limit is a basic rate-limiting middleware for Express. In versions starting from 8.0.0 and prior to versions 8.0.2, 8.1.1, 8.2.2, and 8.3.0, the default keyGenerator in express-rate-limit applies IPv6 subnet masking /56 by default to all addresses that net.isIPv6 returns true for. Th...

These vulnerabilities stem from the improper application of subnet masks by the default key generato...

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

Overview express-rate-limit is a Basic IP rate-limiting middleware for Express. Use to limit repeated requests to public APIs and/or endpoints such as password reset. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the ipKeyGenerator...

GHSA-46WH-PXPV-Q5GQ express-rate-limit: IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses bypass per-client rate limiting on servers with dual-stack network

Summary The default keyGenerator in express-rate-limit applies IPv6 subnet masking /56 by default to all addresses that net.isIPv6 returns true for. This includes IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses ::ffff:x.x.x.x, which Node.js returns as request.ip on dual-stack servers. Because the first 80 bits of all...
