ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1771494125 advisory.

  - A security flaw in Node.js allows a bypass of network import restrictions. By embedding non-network
    imports in data URLs, an attacker can execute arbitrary code, compromising system security. Verified on
    various platforms, the vulnerability is mitigated by forbidding data URLs in network imports. Exploiting
    this flaw can violate network import security, posing a risk to developers and servers. (CVE-2024-22020)

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