CVSS: 7.4EPSS: 0%CPEs: 16EXPL: 1CVE-2021-44532 – nodejs: Certificate Verification Bypass via String Injection
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-44532
24 Feb 2022 — Node.js < 12.22.9, < 14.18.3, < 16.13.2, and < 17.3.1 converts SANs (Subject Alternative Names) to a string format. It uses this string to check peer certificates against hostnames when validating connections. The string format was subject to an injection vulnerability when name constraints were used within a certificate chain, allowing the bypass of these name constraints.Versions of Node.js with the fix for this escape SANs containing the problematic characters in order to prevent the injection.

CVSS: 7.4EPSS: 0%CPEs: 15EXPL: 0CVE-2021-44531 – nodejs: Improper handling of URI Subject Alternative Names
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-44531
24 Feb 2022 — Accepting arbitrary Subject Alternative Name (SAN) types, unless a PKI is specifically defined to use a particular SAN type, can result in bypassing name-constrained intermediates. Node.js < 12.22.9, < 14.18.3, < 16.13.2, and < 17.3.1 was accepting URI SAN types, which PKIs are often not defined to use. Additionally, when a protocol allows URI SANs, Node.js did not match the URI correctly.Versions of Node.js with the fix for this disable the URI SAN type when checking a certificate against a hostname.
