Luxon is a library for working with dates and times in JavaScript. On the 1.x branch prior to 1.38.1, the 2.x branch prior to 2.5.2, and the 3.x branch on 3.2.1, Luxon's `DateTime.fromRFC2822() has quadratic (N^2) complexity on some specific inputs. This causes a noticeable slowdown for inputs with lengths above 10k characters. Users providing untrusted data to this method are therefore vulnerable to (Re)DoS attacks. This issue also appears in Moment as CVE-2022-31129. Versions 1.38.1, 2.5.2, and 3.2.1 contain patches for this issue. As a workaround, limit the length of the input.

CVE-2023-22467 [HIGH] CWE-1333 Luxon Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity vulnerability
Luxon Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity vulnerability
# Impact
Luxon's `DateTime.fromRFC2822() has quadratic (N^2) complexity on some specific inputs. This causes a noticeable slowdown for inputs with lengths above 10k characters. Users providing untrusted data to this method are therefore vulnerable to (Re)DoS attacks.
This is the same bug as Moment's https://github.com/moment/moment/security/advisories/GHSA-wc69-rhjr-hc9g
# Workarounds
Limit the length of the input.

There is an excellent writeup of the same issue in Moment: https://github.com/moment/moment/pull/6015#issuecomment-1152961973
# Details
`DateTime.fromRFC2822("(".repeat(500000))` takes a couple minutes to complete.
