2018-11-27, Version 8.14.0 'Carbon' (LTS)v8.14.0
This is a security release. All Node.js users should consult the security
release summary at:
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/november-2018-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Fixes for the following CVEs are included in this release:
* Node.js: Denial of Service with large HTTP headers (CVE-2018-12121)
* Node.js: Slowloris HTTP Denial of Service (CVE-2018-12122 / Node.js)
* Node.js: Hostname spoofing in URL parser for javascript protocol
(CVE-2018-12123)
* Node.js: HTTP request splitting (CVE-2018-12116)
* OpenSSL: Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation (CVE-2018-0734)
* OpenSSL: Microarchitecture timing vulnerability in ECC scalar multiplication
(CVE-2018-5407)
Notable Changes:
* deps: Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.2q, fixing CVE-2018-0734 and CVE-2018-5407
* http:
* Headers received by HTTP servers must not exceed 8192 bytes in total to
prevent possible Denial of Service attacks. Reported by Trevor Norris.
(CVE-2018-12121 / Matteo Collina)
* A timeout of 40 seconds now applies to servers receiving HTTP headers. This
value can be adjusted with `server.headersTimeout`. Where headers are not
completely received within this period, the socket is destroyed on the next
received chunk. In conjunction with `server.setTimeout()`, this aids in
protecting against excessive resource retention and possible Denial of
Service. Reported by Jan Maybach (liebdich.com).
* Two-byte characters are now strictly disallowed for the `path` option in
HTTP client requests. Paths containing characters outside of the range
`\u0021` - `\u00ff` will now be rejected with a `TypeError`. This behavior
can be reverted if necessary by supplying the
`--security-revert=CVE-2018-12116` command line argument (this is not
recommended). Reported as security concern for Node.js 6 and 8 by
Arkadiy Tetelman (lob.com), fixed by backporting a change by Benno
Fünfstück applied to Node.js 10 and later.
(CVE-2018-12116 / Matteo Collina)
* url: Fix a bug that would allow a hostname being spoofed when parsing URLs
with `url.parse()` with the `'javascript:'` protocol. Reported by
Martin Bajanik (kenticocloud.com). (CVE-2018-12123 / Matteo Collina)
