NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jitsucom-jitsu package and not the jitsucom-jitsu package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to 1.4.1, the affected implementation used pem.decode(), lib/pem.js, missing END line to process the relevant input or security decision. node-forge used polynomial-time regular expressions in pem.decode(), including when searching for a matching END line and parsing encapsulated headers. An unauthenticated attacker able to supply PEM input to any high-level parser could consume excessive CPU with a long malformed message and cause denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.4.1.
