There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 v8314-v8.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream v8314-v8 package and not the v8314-v8 package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Utf8DecoderBase::WriteUtf16Slow function in unicode-decoder.cc in Google V8, as used in Node.js before 0.12.6, io.js before 1.8.3 and 2.x before 2.3.3, and other products, does not verify that there is memory available for a UTF-16 surrogate pair, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted byte sequence.
