CVE-2021-28918: GitHub - rs/node-netmask: Parse and lookup IP network blocks

The Netmask class parses and understands IPv4 CIDR blocks so they can be explored and compared. This module is highly inspired by Perl Net::Netmask module.

Synopsis

var Netmask = require(‘netmask’).Netmask

var block = new Netmask(‘10.0.0.0/12’); block.base; // 10.0.0.0 block.mask; // 255.240.0.0 block.bitmask; // 12 block.hostmask; // 0.15.255.255 block.broadcast; // 10.15.255.255 block.size; // 1048576 block.first; // 10.0.0.1 block.last; // 10.15.255.254

block.contains(‘10.0.8.10’); // true block.contains(‘10.8.0.10’); // true block.contains(‘192.168.1.20’); // false

block.forEach(function(ip, long, index));

block.next() // Netmask(‘10.16.0.0/12’)

Constructing

Netmask objects are created with an IP address and optionally a mask. There are many forms that are recognized:

'216.240.32.0/24'               // The preferred form.
'216.240.32.0/255.255.255.0'
'216.240.32.0', '255.255.255.0'
'216.240.32.0', 0xffffff00
'216.240.32.4'                  // A /32 block.
'0330.0360.040.04'              // Octal form
'0xd8.0xf0.0x20.0x4'            // Hex form

API

• .base: The base address of the network block as a string (eg: 216.240.32.0). Base does not give an indication of the size of the network block.
• .mask: The netmask as a string (eg: 255.255.255.0).
• .hostmask: The host mask which is the opposite of the netmask (eg: 0.0.0.255).
• .bitmask: The netmask as a number of bits in the network portion of the address for this block (eg: 24).
• .size: The number of IP addresses in a block (eg: 256).
• .broadcast: The blocks broadcast address (eg: 192.168.1.0/24 => 192.168.1.255)
• .first, .last: First and last useable address
• .contains(ip or block): Returns a true if the IP number ip is part of the network. That is, a true value is returned if ip is between base and broadcast. If a Netmask object or a block is given, it returns true only of the given block fits inside the network.
• .forEach(fn): Similar to the Array prototype method. It loops through all the useable addresses, ie between first and last.
• .next(count): Without a count, return the next block of the same size after the current one. With a count, return the Nth block after the current one. A count of -1 returns the previous block. Undef will be returned if out of legal address space.
• .toString(): The netmask in base/bitmask format (e.g., ‘216.240.32.0/24’)
