NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream node-re2 package and not the node-re2 package as distributed by Echo.
See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.
node-re2 provides RE2 regular expression bindings for Node.js. Prior to version 1.26.1, passing a Buffer whose final bytes form a truncated (incomplete) multi-byte UTF-8 sequence could cause the native binding to read past the end of the allocated buffer while attempting to decode the final, incomplete code point. This could result in an out-of-bounds read and potential disclosure of adjacent memory contents. This issue is fixed in version 1.26.1.
