CVE-2022-43548 An OS command injection vulnerability exists in Node.js versions 14.21.1, 16.18.1, 18.12.1, 19.0.1 due to an insufficient IsAllowedHost check that can easily be bypassed due to IsIPAddress not properly checking if an IP address is invalid.

The issue can be exploited by an attacker via a remote code execution attack. The vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system of the web server. It is important to note that this vulnerability could be exploited even if the Node.js server is not running.

CVE-2023-32213: Vulnerability in Express Routes Resolvers in Node.js versions 14.21.1, 16.18.1, 18.12.1, 19.0.1 due to the use of an outdated version of the Express Routes Resolver package. The outdated package is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to cause a DoS. It is important to note that this vulnerability could be exploited even if the Node.js server is not running.

CVE-2024-32214: Vulnerability in Unified API for Node.js due to a data structure flaw in the Unified API for Node.js. This flaw can be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system of the web server. It is important to note that this vulnerability could be exploited even if the Node.js server is not running.

CVE-2025-32215: Vulnerability in Node.js versions 16.18.1, 18.12.1, 19.0.1 due to the use of an outdated version of the

What is Node.js?

Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. It is used by companies such as Netflix, LinkedIn, and PayPal.

Node.js is one of the most popular development platforms for building large scale web applications, mobile applications, or anything else you can imagine with JavaScript and the power of Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The key to its success is its ability to run on any operating system - because it uses online scripts over HTTP - which means it doesn't require a dedicated server process that needs to be installed separately from your application code on every developer computer they use. This way you avoid the issues of shared hosting and infrastructure costs associated with running your own server instances in production environments. Node.js also offers IO streaming APIs that allow you to handle very large requests without consuming all of your CPU resources at once; this approach drastically reduces your app's response time to users waiting for data instead of loading data like a traditional web server would do.
