Notable changes:
An infrastructure issue caused a non-functioning msi installer for x64 to be promoted.
The patch release is to ensure that all binaries and installers work as expected.
Notable changes:
No additional commits.
Due to incorrect staging of the upgrade to the GCC 4.9.X compiler, the
latest releases for PPC little endian were built using GCC 4.9.X
instead of GCC 4.8.X. This caused an ABI breakage on PPCLE based
environments. This has been fixed in our infrastructure and we are
doing this release to ensure that the hosted binaries are adhering to
our platform support contract.
Note that Node.js versions 10.X and later will be built with version
4.9.X or later of the GCC compiler, and it is possible that Node.js
version 9.X may be built on the 4.9.X compiler at a later time as the
stated minimum compiler requirement for Node.js version 9.X is 4.9.4.

This is a security release. All Node.js users should consult the
security release summary at:
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/march-2018-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Fixes for the following CVEs are included in this release:
* CVE-2018-7158
* CVE-2018-7159
* CVE-2018-7160
Notable changes:
* Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.2o: Does not contain any security fixes that
are known to impact Node.js.
* **Fix for inspector DNS rebinding vulnerability (CVE-2018-7160)**:
A malicious website could use a DNS rebinding attack to trick a web
browser to bypass same-origin-policy checks and allow HTTP
connections to localhost or to hosts on the local network,
potentially to an open inspector port as a debugger, therefore
gaining full code execution access. The inspector now only allows
connections that have a browser `Host` value of `localhost` or
`localhost6`.
* **Fix for `'path'` module regular expression denial of service
(CVE-2018-7158)**: A regular expression used for parsing POSIX an
Windows paths could be used to cause a denial of service if an
attacker were able to have a specially crafted path string passed
through one of the impacted `'path'` module functions.
* **Reject spaces in HTTP `Content-Length` header values
(CVE-2018-7159)**: The Node.js HTTP parser allowed for spaces inside
`Content-Length` header values. Such values now lead to rejected
connections in the same way as non-numeric values.
* **Update root certificates**: 5 additional root certificates have
been added to the Node.js binary and 30 have been removed.
* cluster:
- Add support for `NODE_OPTIONS="--inspect"` (Sameer Srivastava)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19165
* crypto:
- Expose the public key of a certificate (Hannes Magnusson)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/17690
* n-api:
- Add `napi_fatal_exception` to trigger an `uncaughtException` in
JavaScript (Mathias Buus)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19337
* path:
- Fix regression in `posix.normalize` (Michaël Zasso)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19520
* stream:
- Improve stream creation performance (Brian White)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/19401

PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs-private/node-private/pull/110
Notable changes:
* events:
- `events.usingDomains` being set to false by default was removed in
9.6.0 which was a change in behavior compared to 9.5.0. This
behavior change has been reverted and the `events` object now has
`usingDomains` preset to `false`, which is the behavior in 9.x
prior to 9.6.0 (Myles Borins)
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/18944
PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/18946
Since the method is inherited from `Writable`, usage of the method
does not change at all after its removal as an explicit method.
Calling it out as notable might therefore be more confusing than
helpful.

* `fs` module callbacks are now invoked with an undefined context.
* **HTTP/1**
* A 400 Bad Request response will now be sent when parsing fails.
* Socket timeout will be set when the socket connects.
* A bug causing the request `'error'` event to fire twice was fixed.
* HTTP clients may now use generic `Duplex` streams in addition to `net.Socket`.
* **Intl**
* The deprecated `Intl.v8BreakIterator` has been removed.
* **Modules**
* The `require.resolve()` method now supports using custom lookup paths.
* **OS**
* The `os.EOL` property is now read-only.
* **Timers**
* `setTimeout()` will emit a warning if the timeout is larger that the maximum
32-bit unsigned integer.
Should not be nested under the bullet point. Headings need to be at the

was introduced in 6.10.1
* a fix for a regression introduced to the windows repl in 6.10.0
* a backported fix for V8 to stop a segfault that could occur
when using spread syntax
It also includes an upgrade to zlib 1.2.11 to fix a numberof low
severity CVEs that were present in zlib 1.2.8.

This release marks the transition of Node.js v6 into Long Term Support
(LTS) with the codename 'Boron'. The v6 release line now moves in to
"Active LTS" and will remain so until April 2018. After that time it
will move in to "Maintenance" until end of life in April 2019.
This is also a security release. All Node.js users should consult the
security release summary at
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2016-security-releases/
for details on patched vulnerabilities.
Notable changes:
* crypto: Don't automatically attempt to load an OpenSSL configuration
file, from the `OPENSSL_CONF` environment variable or from the
default location for the current platform. Always triggering a
configuration file load attempt may allow an attacker to load
compromised OpenSSL configuration into a Node.js process if they are
able to place a file in a default location. (Fedor Indutny, Rod Vagg)
* node: Introduce the `process.release.lts` property, set to `"Boron"`.
This value is `"Argon"` for v4 LTS releases and `undefined` for all
other releases. (Rod Vagg)
* V8: Backport fix for CVE-2016-5172, an arbitrary memory read.
The parser in V8 mishandled scopes, potentially allowing an attacker
to obtain sensitive information from arbitrary memory locations via
crafted JavaScript code. This vulnerability would require an
attacker to be able to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in a
Node.js process. (Rod Vagg)
* **v8_inspector**: Generate a UUID for each execution of the
inspector. This provides additional security to prevent unauthorized
clients from connecting to the Node.js process via the v8_inspector
port when running with `--inspect`. Since the debugging protocol
allows extensive access to the internals of a running process, and
the execution of arbitrary code, it is important to limit
connections to authorized tools only. Vulnerability originally
reported by Jann Horn. (Eugene Ostroukhov)

* buffer: Ignore negative lengths in calls to Buffer() and
Buffer.allocUnsafe(). This fixes a possible security concern
(reported by Feross Aboukhadijeh) where user input is passed
unchecked to the Buffer constructor or allocUnsafe() as it can
expose parts of the memory slab used by other Buffers in the
application. Note that negative lengths are not supported by the
Buffer API and user input to the constructor should always be
sanitised and type-checked.
