Summary
Use of Unencrypted HTTP Request in dectalk-tts
Original description
The description as published by the source.
dectalk-tts is a Node package to interact with the aeiou Dectalk web API. In dectalk-tts@1.0.0, network requests to the third-party API are sent over HTTP, which is unencrypted. Unencrypted traffic can be easily intercepted and modified by attackers. Anyone who uses the package could be the victim of a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. The network request was upgraded to HTTPS in version 1.0.1. There are no workarounds, but some precautions include not sending any sensitive information and carefully verifying the API response before saving it.
