Alpine: multiple nodejs packages: security update to 14.15.4-r0

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 424227

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

 - Node.js versions before 10.23.1, 12.20.1, 14.15.4, 15.5.1 are vulnerable to a use-after-free bug in its
 TLS implementation. When writing to a TLS enabled socket, node::StreamBase::Write calls
 node::TLSWrap::DoWrite with a freshly allocated WriteWrap object as first argument. If the DoWrite method
 does not return an error, this object is passed back to the caller as part of a StreamWriteResult
 structure. This may be exploited to corrupt memory leading to a Denial of Service or potentially other
 exploits. (CVE-2020-8265)

 - 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. (CVE-2020-8287)
