2014-09-24 23:01:24
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : nodejs-send
Product : Fedora EPEL 6
Version : 0.3.0
Release : 4.el6
URL :
https://github.com/visionmedia/send
Summary : Better streaming static file server with Range and conditional-GET support
Description :
Send is Connect's static() extracted for generalized use, a streaming static
file server supporting partial responses (Ranges), conditional-GET
negotiation, high test coverage, and granular events which may be leveraged
to take appropriate actions in your application or framework.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
When relying on the root option to restrict file access it may be possible for an
application consumer to escape out of the restricted directory and access files in a
similarly named directory. For example, static(_dirname + '/public') would allow
access to _dirname + '/public-restricted'.
