"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2023:0049 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

      CVE-2023-23918:
      A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Node.js <19.6.1, <18.14.1, <16.19.1 and <14.21.3 that
    made it possible to bypass the experimental Permissions (https://nodejs.org/api/permissions.html) feature
    in Node.js and access non authorized modules by using process.mainModule.require(). This only affects
    users who had enabled the experimental permissions option with --experimental-policy.

      CVE-2023-23919:
      A cryptographic vulnerability exists in Node.js <19.2.0, <18.14.1, <16.19.1, <14.21.3 that in some cases
    did does not clear the OpenSSL error stack after operations that may set it. This may lead to false
    positive errors during subsequent cryptographic operations that happen to be on the same thread. This in
    turn could be used to cause a denial of service.

      CVE-2023-23936:
      Undici is an HTTP/1.1 client for Node.js. Starting with version 2.0.0 and prior to version 5.19.1, the
    undici library does not protect `host` HTTP header from CRLF injection vulnerabilities. This issue is
    patched in Undici v5.19.1. As a workaround, sanitize the `headers.host` string before passing to undici.

      CVE-2023-24807:
      Undici is an HTTP/1.1 client for Node.js. Prior to version 5.19.1, the `Headers.set()` and
    `Headers.append()` methods are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attacks when
    untrusted values are passed into the functions. This is due to the inefficient regular expression used to
    normalize the values in the `headerValueNormalize()` utility function. This vulnerability was patched in
    v5.19.1. No known workarounds are available.

      CVE-2023-23920:
      An untrusted search path vulnerability exists in Node.js. <19.6.1, <18.14.1, <16.19.1, and <14.21.3 that
    could allow an attacker to search and potentially load ICU data when running with elevated privileges.

      CVE-2022-25881:
      This affects versions of the package http-cache-semantics before 4.1.1. The issue can be exploited via
    malicious request header values sent to a server, when that server reads the cache policy from the request
    using this library.

      CVE-2022-4904:
      A flaw was found in the c-ares package. The ares_set_sortlist is missing checks about the validity of
    the input string, which allows a possible arbitrary length stack overflow. This issue may cause a denial
    of service or a limited impact on confidentiality and integrity.
