Vulnerability Data
Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. Prior to version 4.11.7, IP Restriction Middleware in Hono is vulnerable to an IP address validation bypass. The `IPV4_REGEX` pattern and `convertIPv4ToBinary` function in `src/utils/ipaddr.ts` do not…

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover regex that fails to match or compare data as intended.
Requiring documented development standards and tools reduces the chance that incorrect regular expressions are written into validation or filtering logic.
An SDLC that incorporates security can embed reviews or tooling that catch malformed regular expressions before deployment.
