Cxf3872f17-a858 @ Npm-ws-1.1.5

[CMaheshBL]

Vulnerable Package issue exists @ Npm-ws-1.1.5 in branch master

The package ws is vulnerable to stack overflow, due to recursive function calls in lib/Receiver.js. When the parser attempts to parse a buffer with a huge number of frames, it leads to stack memory consumption. This affects the availability.
