How to fix?

Upgrade Wolfi nodejs-20 to version 20.3.1-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nodejs-20 package and not the nodejs-20 package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

fs.openAsBlob() can bypass the experimental permission model when using the file system read restriction with the --allow-fs-read flag in Node.js 20. This flaw arises from a missing check in the fs.openAsBlob() API.

Please note that at the time this CVE was issued, the permission model is an experimental feature of Node.js.
