Vulnerability identifier: NR20-02

Priority: Medium

Vulnerability information

Even when users configure the Node.js agent to exclude the request.uri attribute, the agent will still capture the URI in transaction traces. This allows authenticated account users to view the URI anywhere transaction trace details can be viewed via New Relic One or queries. This includes (but is not limited to) the Transaction traces section of the Transactions page, the Transaction trace details, and the query builder in the UI.

Mitigating factors

This will only affect Node.js agents configured to exclude the request.uri attribute.
