Summary
Versions of `floody` before 0.1.1 are vulnerable to remote memory exposure. .write(number)` in the affected `floody` versions passes a number to Buffer constructor, appending a chunk of uninitialized memory. Proof of Concept: ``` var f = require('floody')(process.stdout); f.write(USERSUPPLIEDINPUT); 'f.stop(); ## Recommendation Update to version 0.1.1 or later.
