Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2018-12122
**DESCRIPTION:*Node.js is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper validation of HTTP headers.

CVEID: CVE-2018-12121
**DESCRIPTION:*Node.js is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper validation of HTTP headers. By sending specially-crafted HTTP requests with maximum sized headers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base Score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/153455&gt; for the current score

CVEID: CVE-2018-12123
**DESCRIPTION:*Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request splitting attacks, caused by improper input validation by the path option of an HTTP request. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary HTTP request and cause the browser to send 2 HTTP requests, once the URL is clicked. This would allow the attacker to perform further attacks, such as Web cache poisoning or cross-site scripting.
