There is no fixed version for Debian:11 node-formidable.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream node-formidable package and not the node-formidable package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

Formidable (aka node-formidable) 2.1.0 through 3.x before 3.5.3 relies on hexoid to prevent guessing of filenames for untrusted executable content; however, hexoid is documented as not "cryptographically secure." (Also, there is a scenario in which only the last two characters of a hexoid string need to be guessed, but this is not often relevant.) NOTE: this does not imply that, in a typical use case, attackers will be able to exploit any hexoid behavior to upload and execute their own content.
