CVE-2020-8252  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-120  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 nodejs10-docs to version 10.22.1-1.27.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs10-docs package and not the nodejs10-docs 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.
