How to fix?

Upgrade undici to version 7.29.1, 8.10.2 or higher.

Overview

undici is an An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Numeric Truncation Error in the interceptors.dump() interceptor, which, for a chunked response with no Content-Length, does not abort an oversized body but terminates after reaching maxSize and trips an internal assertion that is caught and converted into a request abort and connection tear-down. An attacker can cause the application to receive a misleading 200 response with a truncated or empty body, followed by a dropped connection, by returning from an upstream a chunked response without Content-Length that exceeds the dump limit. This requires the application to use the interceptors.dump() interceptor against an untrusted or misbehaving upstream.
