"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-2026:0171 advisory.

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

    CVE-2025-55130:
    A flaw in Node.jss Permissions model allows attackers to bypass --allow-fs-read and --allow-fs-write
    restrictions using crafted relative symlink paths. By chaining directories and symlinks, a script granted
    access only to the current directory can escape the allowed path and read sensitive files. This breaks the
    expected isolation guarantees and enables arbitrary file read/write, leading to potential system
    compromise.
    This vulnerability affects users of the permission model on Node.js v20,  v22,  v24, and v25.

    CVE-2025-55131:
    A flaw in Node.js's buffer allocation logic can expose uninitialized memory when allocations are
    interrupted, when using the vm module with the timeout option. Under specific timing conditions, buffers
    allocated with Buffer.alloc and other TypedArray instances like Uint8Array may contain leftover data from
    previous operations, allowing in-process secrets like tokens or passwords to leak or causing data
    corruption. While exploitation typically requires precise timing or in-process code execution, it can
    become remotely exploitable when untrusted input influences workload and timeouts, leading to potential
    confidentiality and integrity impact.

    CVE-2025-55132:
    A flaw in Node.js's permission model allows a file's access and modification timestamps to be changed via
    futimes() even when the process has only read permissions. Unlike utimes(), futimes() does not apply the
    expected write-permission checks, which means file metadata can be modified in read-only directories. This
    behavior could be used to alter timestamps in ways that obscure activity, reducing the reliability of
    logs. This vulnerability affects users of the permission model on Node.js v20,  v22,  v24, and v25.

    CVE-2025-59465:
    A malformed HTTP/2 HEADERS frame with oversized, invalid HPACK data can cause Node.js to crash by
    triggering an unhandled TLSSocket error ECONNRESET. Instead of safely closing the connection, the process
    crashes, enabling a remote denial of service. This primarily affects applications that do not attach
    explicit error handlers to secure sockets, for example:

    server.on('secureConnection', socket => {
    socket.on('error', err => {
      console.log(err)
    })
    })


    CVE-2025-59466:
    We have identified a bug in Node.js error handling where Maximum call stack size exceeded errors become
    uncatchable when async_hooks.createHook() is enabled. Instead of reaching process.on('uncaughtException'),
    the process terminates, making the crash unrecoverable. Applications that rely on AsyncLocalStorage (v22,
    v20) or async_hooks.createHook() (v24, v22, v20) become vulnerable to denial-of-service crashes triggered
    by deep recursion under specific conditions.

    CVE-2026-21637:
    A flaw in Node.js TLS error handling allows remote attackers to crash or exhaust resources of a TLS server
    when pskCallback or ALPNCallback are in use. Synchronous exceptions thrown during these callbacks bypass
    standard TLS error handling paths (tlsClientError and error), causing either immediate process termination
    or silent file descriptor leaks that eventually lead to denial of service. Because these callbacks process
    attacker-controlled input during the TLS handshake, a remote client can repeatedly trigger the issue. This
    vulnerability affects TLS servers using PSK or ALPN callbacks across Node.js versions where these
    callbacks throw without being safely wrapped.
