Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

In the nodejs module node-tar prior to version 6.2.1, there is no validation of the number of folders created while unpacking a file. As a result, an attacker can use a malicious file to exhaust the CPU and memory on the host and crash the nodejs client.

The version of nodejs18 / nodejs installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-28863 advisory.

  - node-tar is a Tar for Node.js. node-tar prior to version 6.2.1 has no limit on the number of sub-folders     created in the folder creation process. An attacker who generates a large number of sub-folders can     consume memory on the system running node-tar and even crash the Node.js client within few seconds of     running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside. Version 6.2.1 fixes this issue by preventing     extraction in excessively deep sub-folders. (CVE-2024-28863)

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-749 advisory.

    A vulnerability has been identified in Node.js, affecting users of the experimental permission model when     the --allow-fs-read flag is used. This flaw arises from an inadequate permission model that fails to     restrict file stats through the fs.lstat API. As a result, malicious actors can retrieve stats from files     that they do not have explicit read access to. (CVE-2024-22018)

    A security flaw in Node.js  allows a bypass of network import restrictions.By embedding non-network     imports in data URLs, an attacker can execute arbitrary code, compromising system security.Verified on     various platforms, the vulnerability is mitigated by forbidding data URLs in network imports.Exploiting     this flaw can violate network import security, posing a risk to developers and servers. (CVE-2024-22020)

    node-tar is a Tar for Node.js. node-tar prior to version 6.2.1 has no limit on the number of sub-folders     created in the folder creation process. An attacker who generates a large number of sub-folders can     consume memory on the system running node-tar and even crash the Node.js client within few seconds of     running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside. Version 6.2.1 fixes this issue by preventing     extraction in excessively deep sub-folders. (CVE-2024-28863)

    A vulnerability has been identified in Node.js, affecting users of the experimental permission model when     the --allow-fs-write flag is used.

    Node.js Permission Model do not operate on file descriptors, however, operations such as fs.fchown or     fs.fchmod can use a read-only file descriptor to change the owner and permissions of a file.
