Description

All versions of Node.js 8.x, 9.x, and 10.x are vulnerable and the severity is HIGH. An attacker can cause a denial of service (DoS) by causing a node server providing an http2 server to crash. This can be accomplished by interacting with the http2 server in a manner that triggers a cleanup bug where objects are used in native code after they are no longer available. This has been addressed by updating the http2 implementation.

Affected configurations

• nodejs node.js (>= 8.0.0 <= 8.8.1) • nodejs node.js (>= 8.9.0 < 8.11.3) • nodejs node.js (>= 9.0.0 < 9.11.2) • nodejs node.js (>= 10.0.0 < 10.4.1)
