Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Property Value
Language javascript
Severity low
CWE CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data
OWASP A08:2017 - Insecure Deserialization
Confidence Level Low
Impact Level Medium
Likelihood Level Low

Description

The code establishes a gRPC connection using 'createInsecure()', which means data is sent without encryption. This exposes all transmitted information to anyone with access to the network.

Impact

An attacker could intercept, read, or modify gRPC messages in transit, potentially leading to data leaks, manipulation of requests or responses, and unauthorized access to sensitive operations. This can compromise both user data and the security of your application.
