2018-11-27, Version 6.15.0 'Boron' (LTS)
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: Debugger port 5858 listens on any interface by default (CVE-2018-12120) * 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: * debugger: Backport of nodejs#8106 to prevent the debugger from listening on `0.0.0.0`. It now defaults to `127.0.0.1`. Reported by Ben Noordhuis. (CVE-2018-12120 / Ben Noordhuis). * 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). (CVE-2018-12122 / Matteo Collina) * 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) PR-URL: nodejs-private/node-private#153
