Description


Engine.IO is the implementation of transport-based cross-browser/cross-device bi-directional communication layer for Socket.IO.

This impacts all the users of the engine.io package, including those who uses depending packages like socket.io. There is no known workaround except upgrading to a safe version. There are patches for this issue released in versions 3.6.1 and 6.2.1.
