Alpine: nodejs: security update to 12.20.1-r0

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 405794

Description

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

- napi_get_value_string_*() allows various kinds of memory corruption in node < 10.21.0, 12.18.0, and <
14.4.0. (CVE-2020-8174)

- TLS session reuse can lead to host certificate verification bypass in node version < 12.18.0 and < 14.4.0.
(CVE-2020-8172)

- Node.js < 12.18.4 and < 14.11 can be exploited to perform HTTP desync attacks and deliver malicious
payloads to unsuspecting users. The payloads can be crafted by an attacker to hijack user sessions, poison
cookies, perform clickjacking, and a multitude of other attacks depending on the architecture of the
underlying system. The attack was possible due to a bug in processing of carrier-return symbols in the
HTTP header names. (CVE-2020-8201)

- The implementation of realpath in libuv < 10.22.1, < 12.18.4, and < 14.9.0 used within Node.js incorrectly
determined the buffer size which can result in a buffer overflow if the resolved path is longer than 256
bytes. (CVE-2020-8252)
