Red Hat Security Advisory: nodejs security update
A moderate security advisory from Red Hat addresses multiple vulnerabilities affecting Node.js and related components. The primary issue (CVE-2024-22025) involves the use of the fetch() function to retrieve content from untrusted URLs, which can lead to denial of service. Additional vulnerabilities include a denial of service in nghttp2 (CVE-2024-28182) and an out-of-bounds read in c-ares (CVE-2024-25629). Red Hat has released updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0 Update Services for SAP Solutions to remediate these issues.
