Descriptions
Node.js had a bug in versions 8.X and 9.X which caused buffers to not be initialized when the encoding for the fill value did not match the encoding specified. For example, 'Buffer.alloc(0x100, "This is not correctly encoded", "hex");' The buffer implementation was updated such that the buffer will be initialized to all zeros in these cases.
Node.js tenía un bug en las versiones 8.X y 9.X que provocaba que los búfers no se inicializasen cuando la codificación para el valor de relleno no coincidía con la codificación especificada. Por ejemplo, "Buffer.alloc(0x100, "This is not correctly encoded", "hex");" La implementación del búfer se actualizó de tal forma que el búfer se inicializará con todo ceros en esos casos.
