NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs-devel package and not the nodejs-devel package as distributed by Oracle.
See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
Undici is an HTTP/1.1 client for Node.js. Prior to version 5.19.1, the Headers.set() and Headers.append() methods are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attacks when untrusted values are passed into the functions. This is due to the inefficient regular expression used to normalize the values in the headerValueNormalize() utility function. This vulnerability was patched in v5.19.1. No known workarounds are available.
