CVE-2022-25883: A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability was discovered in node-semver package via the ‘new Range’ function. This issue could allow an attacker to pass untrusted malicious regex user data as a range, causing the service to excessively consume CPU depending upon the input size, resulting in a denial of service.
CVE-2023-32002: A vulnerability was found in NodeJS. This security issue occurs as the use of Module._load() can bypass the policy mechanism and require modules outside of the policy.json definition for a given module.
CVE-2023-32006: A vulnerability was found in NodeJS. This security issue occurs as the use of module.constructor.createRequire() can bypass the policy mechanism and require modules outside of the policy.json definition for a given module.
CVE-2023-32559: A vulnerability was found in NodeJS. This security issue occurs as the use of the deprecated API process.binding() can bypass the policy mechanism by requiring internal modules and eventually take advantage of process.binding(‘spawn_sync’) to run arbitrary code outside of the limits defined in a policy.json file.
