How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.1 nodejs8-docs to version 8.17.0-3.42.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs8-docs package and not the nodejs8-docs package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

Node.js versions before 10.23.1, 12.20.1, 14.15.4, 15.5.1 allow two copies of a header field in an HTTP request (for example, two Transfer-Encoding header fields). In this case, Node.js identifies the first header field and ignores the second. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling.
