CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when extracting tar files that contained both a directory and a symlink with the same name as the directory, where the symlink and directory names in the archive entry used backslashes as a path separator on posix systems. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when extracting tar files that contained two directories and a symlink with names containing unicode values that normalized to the same value. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive that, when extracted, can overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44531

CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of URI Subject Alternative Names. Node.js accepts arbitrary Subject Alternative Name (SAN) types, unless a PKI is specifically defined to use a particular SAN type. A remote attacker can bypass name-constrained intermediates and perform spoofing attack.

Mitigation
