Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from insecure HTTP downloads. In Node.js, HTTP requests are typically made via http.get
. While the exact ikst function wrapping this call isn't visible in the provided data, the core http.get
method would appear in stack traces when the vulnerable download operation is executed. The medium confidence reflects the lack of direct code examples, but aligns with the vulnerability's nature and common implementation patterns.
