Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-3247-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'node-trim-newlines' package(s) announced via the DLA-3247-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'node-trim-newlines' package(s) announced via the DLA-3247-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that there was a potential remote denial of service vulnerability in node-trim-newlines, a Javascript module to strip newlines from the start and/or end of a string. This regular expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack exploited the fact that most Regular Expression implementations can reach extreme situations that cause them to work very slowly in a way that is exponentially related to the input size. An attacker can then cause a program using node-trim-newlines (and thus the offending regex) to enter one of these extreme situations and then hang for a very long time. CVE-2021-33623 The trim-newlines package before 3.0.1 and 4.x before 4.0.1 for Node.js has an issue related to regular expression denial-of-service (ReDoS) for the .end() method. For Debian 10 Buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.0-1+deb10u1. We recommend that you upgrade your node-trim-newlines packages.
