"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- xmldom is a pure JavaScript W3C standard-based (XML DOM Level 2 Core) DOMParser and XMLSerializer module.
From 0.7.0 until 0.8.15, the release-0.8.x parser in lib/sax.js trims captured end-tag names with the
unanchored global expression /[ \t\n\r]+$/g. For an end tag containing a long whitespace run followed by a
non-whitespace character, the expression retries from each possible starting position and backtracks
quadratically before failing its end anchor. DOMParser.parseFromString() reaches the path under default
options, allowing a small unauthenticated XML input to stall the Node.js event loop; the 0.9.x and
unscoped npm lines do not contain this expression. This issue is fixed in @xmldom/xmldom version 0.8.15.
