    Package        : node-trim-newlines     Version        : 1.0.0-1+deb10u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2021-33623

    It was discovered that there was a potential remote denial of service     vulnerability in node-trim-newlines, a Javascript module to strip     newlines from the start and/or end of a string.

    This regular expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attack exploited     the fact that most Regular Expression implementations can reach     extreme situations that cause them to work very slowly in a way that     is exponentially related to the input size. An attacker can then     cause a program using node-trim-newlines (and thus the offending     regex) to enter one of these extreme situations and then hang for a     very long time.

    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version     1.0.0-1+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your node-trim-newlines packages.

    For the detailed security status of node-trim-newlines please refer to     its security tracker page at:

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-5999-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that trim-newlines incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system     were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue     to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2021-33623)
