OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it. |

So CryptoJS just dropped a bomb: everything they do by default is not as strong as it could be. Oh and by the way, the entire library is now deprecated. :( GHSA-xwcq-pm8m-c4vf Unfortunately we can't just upgrade to the latest release 4.2.0 because the hashing algorithm has changed, and a user would no longer be able to login: the default hash generated by CryptoJS 4.2.0 won't match the hash generated by CryptoJS 4.1.0. Note that this is only an issue if someone got the contents of your database and wanted to figure out user passwords (but it still cost [$45,000 per password](https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/014.pdf) apparently?). In the wake of this CVE we're going to convert dbAuth to use the built-in `node:crypto` library instead, with more sensible default configuration. There are two areas where we use the crypto libs: 1. Hashing the user's password to store in the DB and compare on login 2. Encrypting/decrypting the session data in a cookie We're going to do this in a non-breaking way by supporting *both* the original CryptoJS-derived values, and the new `node:crypto` ones. The alternative would be to require every user to change their password, which seems like a non-starter. 1. On signup, store the hashedPassword using the new `node:crypto` algorithm 2. On login, compare the user's hashedPassword using the `node:crypto` algorithm: * If a match is found, user is logged in * If a match fails, fall back to the original CryptoJS algorithm (but using the `node:crypto` implementation) * If a match is found, update the `hashedPassword` in the database to the new algorithm, user is logged in * If a match is still not found, the user entered the wrong password. Likewise for cookies and login: 1. When encrypting the user's session, always use the new `node:crypto` algorithm 2. When decrypting the user's session, first try with `node:crypto` * If decrypting works, user is logged in * If decrypting fails, try the older CryptoJS algorithm ([I haven't figured how](brix/crypto-js#468) to use `node:crypto` to decrypt something that was encrypted with CryptoJS yet, so we'll need to keep the dependency on CryptoJS around for now) * If decrypting works, re-encrypt the cookie using the new `node:crypto` algorithm, user is logged in * If decrypting still fails, the session is invalid (someone tampered with the cookie) so log them out ## Notifying Users We could announce in the Release Notes that if a platform wants the absolute safest route, they should change their `SESSION_SECRET` *and* have users change their password if, for example, they suspect that their database may have been compromised before our release. The next most secure thing would be to just change `SESSION_SECRET` which would log everyone out, and on next login their password will get re-hashed with the new algorithm. But the default for most people will probably be to just go about business as usual, and as time goes by more and more users' passwords will be re-hashed on login.
