Description Laura Pardo 2018-06-13 22:23:09 UTC
A flaw was found in all versions of Node.js 9.x and 10.x. An attacker can cause a denial of service (DoS) by causing a node process which provides an http server supporting TLS server to crash. This can be accomplished by sending duplicate/unexpected messages during the handshake.
