Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - In Node.js including 6.x before 6.17.0, 8.x before 8.15.1, 10.x before 10.15.2, and 11.x before 11.10.1,
 an attacker can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by establishing an HTTP or HTTPS connection in keep-alive
 mode and by sending headers very slowly. This keeps the connection and associated resources alive for a
 long period of time. Potential attacks are mitigated by the use of a load balancer or other proxy layer.
