CVE-2022-4904 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:9.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs:18/nodejs package and not the nodejs:18/nodejs package as distributed by RHEL.
A flaw was found in the c-ares package. The ares_set_sortlist is missing checks about the validity of the input string, which allows a possible arbitrary length stack overflow. This issue may cause a denial of service or a limited impact on confidentiality and integrity.
