### Impact In certain cases, `path-to-regexp` will output a regular expression that can be exploited to cause poor performance. ### Patches For users of 0.1, upgrade to `0.1.10`. All other users should upgrade to `8.0.0`. Version 0.1.10 adds backtracking protection when a custom regular expression is not provided, so it's still possible to manually create a ReDoS vulnerability if you are providing custom regular expressions. Version 8.0.0 removes all features that can cause a ReDoS and stops exposing the regular expression directly. ### Workarounds All versions can be patched by providing a custom regular expression for parameters after the first in a single segment. As long as the custom regular expression does not match the text before the parameter, you will be safe. For example, change `/:a-:b` to `/:a-:b([^-/]+)`. If paths cannot be rewritten and versions cannot be upgraded, another alternative is to limit the URL length. For example, halving the attack string improves pe...
