📝 LLM Analysis
🔸 Vulnerability Description
The code sets the rejectUnauthorized option to false when establishing a connection using io.connect. This bypasses the verification of the server's SSL certificate, making the connection vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks.
🔸 Recommended Fix
Enable SSL certificate verification by setting rejectUnauthorized to true. Ensure that the server's SSL certificate is valid and trusted.
🔸 Additional Notes
Ensure that the server's SSL certificate is correctly configured and trusted by the client to avoid connection issues after enabling certificate verification.
