Copilot Autofix
AI 9 months ago
To fix the issue, replace the use of Math.random() with a cryptographically secure random number generator. In Node.js, the crypto module provides the randomBytes method, which can generate cryptographically secure random values.
The session ID generation logic on line 150 should be updated to use crypto.randomBytes to generate a secure random string. This ensures that the session ID is unpredictable and resistant to attacks.
Steps to implement the fix:
- Import the
cryptomodule at the top of the file if it is not already imported. - Replace the
Math.random().toString(36).substring(2, 15)logic with a secure random string generated usingcrypto.randomBytes.
