Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2024-04-16 11:31 – Updated: 2026-06-29 10:53 – Source website

Summary

nodejs vulnerabilities

Details

It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled the use of invalid public keys while creating an x509 certificate. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.10. (CVE-2023-30588)

It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled the use of CRLF sequences to delimit HTTP requests. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain unauthorised access. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.10. (CVE-2023-30589)

It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly described the generateKeys() function in the documentation. This inconsistency could possibly lead to security issues in applications that use these APIs. (CVE-2023-30590)

UBUNTU-CVE-2023-30588 (CVE-2023-30588)

Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2023-11-28 20:15 – Updated: 2025-07-16 05:09 – Source website

Withdrawn 2025-07-18

Details

When an invalid public key is used to create an x509 certificate using the crypto.X509Certificate() API a non-expect termination occurs making it susceptible to DoS attacks when the attacker could force interruptions of application processing, as the process terminates when accessing public key info of provided certificates from user code. The current context of the users will be gone, and that will cause a DoS scenario. This vulnerability affects all active Node.js versions v16, v18, and, v20.

Severity

5.3 (Medium)

UBUNTU-CVE-2023-30589 (CVE-2023-30589)

Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2023-07-01 00:15 – Updated: 2025-07-16 05:09 – Source website

Withdrawn 2025-07-18

Details

The llhttp parser in the http module in Node v20.2.0 does not strictly use the CRLF sequence to delimit HTTP requests. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). The CR character (without LF) is sufficient to delimit HTTP header fields in the llhttp parser. According to RFC7230 section 3, only the CRLF sequence should delimit each header-field. This impacts all Node.js active versions: v16, v18, and, v20

Severity

7.5 (High)

UBUNTU-CVE-2023-30590 (CVE-2023-30590)

Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu – Published: 2023-11-28 20:15 – Updated: 2026-04-22 07:45 – Source website

Details

The generateKeys() API function returned from crypto.createDiffieHellman() only generates missing (or outdated) keys, that is, it only generates a private key if none has been set yet, but the function is also needed to compute the corresponding public key after calling setPrivateKey(). However, the documentation says this API call: "Generates private and public Diffie-Hellman key values". The documented behavior is very different from the actual behavior, and this difference could easily lead to security issues in applications that use these APIs as the DiffieHellman may be used as the basis for application-level security, implications are consequently broad.

Severity

7.5 (High)

  "details": "The generateKeys() API function returned from crypto.createDiffieHellman() only generates missing (or outdated) keys, that is, it only generates a private key if none has been set yet, but the function is also needed to compute the corresponding public key after calling setPrivateKey(). However, the documentation says this API call: \"Generates private and public Diffie-Hellman key values\". The documented behavior is very different from the actual behavior, and this difference could easily lead to security issues in applications that use these APIs as the DiffieHellman may be used as the basis for application-level security, implications are consequently broad.",

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
