NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs-full-i18n package and not the nodejs-full-i18n package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A vulnerability in Node.js HTTP servers allows an attacker to send a specially crafted HTTP request with chunked encoding, leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service (DoS). The server reads an unbounded number of bytes from a single connection, exploiting the lack of limitations on chunk extension bytes. The issue can cause CPU and network bandwidth exhaustion, bypassing standard safeguards like timeouts and body size limits.
