Package : node-url-parse Version : 1.5.3-1+deb11u3 CVE ID : CVE-2022-0639

It was found that in node-url-parse, a Node.js module used to parse URLs, an incorrect conversion of `@` characters in protocol in the `href` field can lead to lead to failure to properly identify the hostname, which in turn could result in authorization bypass.
