Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.112362
Category:Denial of Service
Title:Node.js < 10.9.0, < 8.11.4, < 6.14.4 OOB Write Vulnerability - Mac OS X
Summary:Node.js is prone to an out-of-bounds write vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Node.js is prone to an out-of-bounds write vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
An OOB write in Buffer can be used to write to memory outside of a Buffer's memory space.
This can corrupt unrelated Buffer objects or cause the Node.js process to crash.

When used with UCS-2 encoding (recognized by Node.js under the names 'ucs2', 'ucs-2', 'utf16le' and 'utf-16le'), Buffer#write() can be abused
to write outside of the bounds of a single Buffer. Writes that start from the second-to-last position of a buffer cause a miscalculation of the maximum length of the input bytes to be written.

Affected Software/OS:
Node.js versions 6.x prior to 6.14.4, 8.x prior to 8.11.4 and 10.x prior to 10.9.0.

Solution:
Upgrade to Node.js version 6.14.4, 8.11.4 or 10.9.0 respectively.

CVSS Score:
5.0
