Description

The Utf8DecoderBase::WriteUtf16Slow function in unicode-decoder.cc in Google V8, as used in Node.js before 0.12.6, io.js before 1.8.3 and 2.x before 2.3.3, and other products, does not verify that there is memory available for a UTF-16 surrogate pair, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted byte sequence.

Affected configurations

• google v8 • iojs io.js (<= 1.8.2) • iojs io.js 2.0.0 • iojs io.js 2.0.1 • iojs io.js 2.0.2 • iojs io.js 2.1.0 • iojs io.js 2.2.0 • iojs io.js 2.2.1 • iojs io.js 2.3.0 • iojs io.js 2.3.1 • iojs io.js 2.3.2 • nodejs node.js (<= 0.12.5)
