How to fix?

Upgrade Alpine:3.19 openjdk11 to version 11.0.15_p10-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openjdk11 package and not the openjdk11 package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.19 relevant fixed versions and status.

Node.js < 12.22.9, < 14.18.3, < 16.13.2, and < 17.3.1 did not handle multi-value Relative Distinguished Names correctly. Attackers could craft certificate subjects containing a single-value Relative Distinguished Name that would be interpreted as a multi-value Relative Distinguished Name, for example, in order to inject a Common Name that would allow bypassing the certificate subject verification.Affected versions of Node.js that do not accept multi-value Relative Distinguished Names and are thus not vulnerable to such attacks themselves. However, third-party code that uses node's ambiguous presentation of certificate subjects may be vulnerable.
