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)
* OpenSSL: Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation (CVE-2018-0734)
* OpenSSL: Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation (CVE-2019-0735)
Notable Changes:
* deps: Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.0j, fixing CVE-2018-0734 and CVE-2019-0735
* 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).
* 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)

can be reverted if necessary by supplying the
`--security-revert=CVE-2018-12116` command line argument (this is not

Arkadiy Tetelman (lob.com), fixed by backporting a change by Benno
Fünfstück applied to Node.js 10 and later.

CVE-2018-12122
An attacker can send a char/s within headers and exahust the resources
(file descriptors) of a system even with a tight max header length
protection. This PR destroys a socket if it has not received the headers
in 40s.

The existing secureProtocol option only allows setting the allowed
protocol to a specific version, or setting it to "all supported
versions". It also used obscure strings based on OpenSSL C API
functions. Directly setting the min or max is easier to use and explain.

One of the comments we got at the N-API workshop
at NodeConfEU was that we should have a better link to
node-addon-api and the docs in the main API docs for
N-API. The goal being to help people find node-addon-api
and potentially start with the node-addon-api docs
instead if they are using C++.
This expands and strengthens the link along with a
recommendation that starting with the node-addon-api
docs might make sense.

This reverts commit ac7450a09a.
This fully reverts the changes to util.inspect depth.
It has caused breakage in logging to existing apps, and even
something as simple as `console.log(require)` will cause >1m freezes.
I've heard nothing but negative feedback (seriously not a single
person has expressed anything positive about this change) and
personally i find this change extremely annoying.
