APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• CVEID: CVE-2024-27983
  Description: Node.js is vulnerable to a denial of service,
  caused by an assertion failure in
  node::http2::Http2Session::~Http2Session(). By sending a small
  amount of HTTP/2 frames packets with a few HTTP/2 frames inside,
  an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the HTTP/2
  server to crash.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2024-27980
  Description: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to execute
  arbitrary commands on the system, caused by the improper
  handling of batch files in child_process.spawn /
  child_process.spawnSync. By sending a specially crafted command
  line argument using args parameter, an attacker could exploit
  this vulnerability to inject and execute arbitrary commands on
  the system.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2024-27982
  Description: Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling,
  caused by the use of content length obfuscation in the http
  server. By sending specially crafted HTTP request headers, an
  attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web
  cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct
  XSS attacks.
