FEDORA-2026-f601b2f60a (nodejs20-20.20.0-2.fc43) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 43. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-f601b2f60a FEDORA-2026-f601b2f60a has been pushed to the Fedora 43 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2026-f601b2f60a` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-f601b2f60a See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. We determined that this vulnerability can not be exploited in our products, as npm have additional protection against all links while using node-tar. Here is upstream npm bugs that are both closed with same explanation(not affected): https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/8922 https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/8917 Additionally here is part of npm source code that does said protection: https://github.com/npm/cli/blob/f8d25cd00132c8c7798a3f982a8da38ceed81e6b/node_modules/pacote/lib/fetcher.js#L421 |
