# Security
|
|
|
|
If you find a security vulnerability in Node.js, please report it to
|
|
security@nodejs.org. Please withhold public disclosure until after the security
|
|
team has addressed the vulnerability.
|
|
|
|
The security team will acknowledge your email within 24 hours. You will receive
|
|
a more detailed response within 48 hours.
|
|
|
|
There are no hard and fast rules to determine if a bug is worth reporting as a
|
|
security issue. Here are some examples of past issues and what the Security
|
|
Response Team thinks of them. When in doubt, please do send us a report
|
|
nonetheless.
|
|
|
|
## Public disclosure preferred
|
|
|
|
- [#14519](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/14519): _Internal domain
|
|
function can be used to cause segfaults_. Requires the ability to execute
|
|
arbitrary JavaScript code. That is already the highest level of privilege
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
## Private disclosure preferred
|
|
|
|
- [CVE-2016-7099](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/september-2016-security-releases/):
|
|
_Fix invalid wildcard certificate validation check_. This was a high-severity
|
|
defect. It caused Node.js TLS clients to accept invalid wildcard certificates.
|
|
|
|
- [#5507](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/5507): _Fix a defect that makes
|
|
the CacheBleed Attack possible_. Many, though not all, OpenSSL vulnerabilities
|
|
in the TLS/SSL protocols also affect Node.js.
|
|
|
|
- [CVE-2016-2216](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/february-2016-security-releases/):
|
|
_Fix defects in HTTP header parsing for requests and responses that can allow
|
|
response splitting_. This was a remotely-exploitable defect in the Node.js
|
|
HTTP implementation.
|
|
|
|
When in doubt, please do send us a report.
