How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 nodejs20 to version 20.12.1-150500.11.9.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs20 package and not the nodejs20 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

An attacker can make the Node.js HTTP/2 server completely unavailable by sending a small amount of HTTP/2 frames packets with a few HTTP/2 frames inside. It is possible to leave some data in nghttp2 memory after reset when headers with HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frame are sent to the server and then a TCP connection is abruptly closed by the client triggering the Http2Session destructor while header frames are still being processed (and stored in memory) causing a race condition.
