"The version of nodejs / nodejs18 installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-22019 advisory.

  - A vulnerability in Node.js HTTP servers allows an attacker to send a specially crafted HTTP request with
    chunked encoding, leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service (DoS). The server reads an
    unbounded number of bytes from a single connection, exploiting the lack of limitations on chunk extension
    bytes. The issue can cause CPU and network bandwidth exhaustion, bypassing standard safeguards like
    timeouts and body size limits. (CVE-2024-22019)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
