Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2017.0204
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2017-0204)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'nodejs' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2017-0204 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'nodejs' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2017-0204 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Node.js has a defect that may make HTTP response splitting possible
under certain circumstances. If user-input is passed to the reason
argument to writeHead() on an HTTP response, a new-line character may be
used to inject additional responses (CVE-2016-5325).

The tls.checkServerIdentity function in Node.js 0.10.x before 0.10.47 does
not properly handle wildcards in name fields of X.509 certificates, which
allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers via a crafted
certificate (CVE-2016-7099).

Affected Software/OS:
'nodejs' package(s) on Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
