CVE-2020-8252 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade SLES:15.1 nodejs10 to version 10.22.1-1.27.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs10 package and not the nodejs10 package as distributed by SLES.
See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.
The implementation of realpath in libuv < 10.22.1, < 12.18.4, and < 14.9.0 used within Node.js incorrectly determined the buffer size which can result in a buffer overflow if the resolved path is longer than 256 bytes.
