Description
A vulnerability in digitalbazaar's forge (node-forge) prior to version 1.4.1 allows a remote peer to trigger an uncaught TypeError during TLS handshake processing. This occurs when a TLS record of a different content type interrupts a fragmented handshake message, causing the process to fail and potentially disrupting the connection or hosting process. The issue is fixed in version 1.4.1.
