An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-12122 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Nodejs Node.js. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12122/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12122/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-12122","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12122/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-12122","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2018-12122","CLEANSTART-2026-CR87870","CLEANSTART-2026-IA30911","DEBIAN-CVE-2018-12122","GHSA-6mxm-8w9r-4997","UBUNTU-CVE-2018-12122"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Node.js runtime","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a Denial of Service in Node.js by sending HTTP headers slowly, exhausting server resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nodejs","cpe":[{"product":"node.js","vendor":"nodejs"},{"product":"suse_enterprise_storage","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_server","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"suse_openstack_cloud","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"Node.js: All versions prior to Node.js 6.15.0, 8.14.0, 10.14.0 and 11.3.0: Slowloris HTTP Denial of Service: An attacker can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending headers very slowly keeping HTTP or HTTPS connections and associated resources alive for a long period of time.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in Node.js","id":"CVE-2018-12122","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"nodejs:node.js","products":["nodejs:node.js","suse:suse_linux_enterprise_server"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Other in Node.js","id":"CVE-2018-12123"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in Node.js","id":"CVE-2018-12121"},"products":["Node.js"],"published":"2018-11-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Node","id":"CVE-2023-32002","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6303","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-16"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Node.js","id":"CVE-2017-15896","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Node.js","id":"CVE-2018-7160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Misconfiguration in Node.js","id":"CVE-2018-12120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-11-28"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Path traversal in Node","id":"CVE-2024-21891","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-20"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Path traversal in Node","id":"CVE-2024-21896","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-08","vendors":["The Node.js Project"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a Denial of Service in Node.js by sending HTTP headers slowly, exhausting server resources.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12122/"}
