Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-08-07 09:52:45 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A flaw in Node.js HTTP/2 handling allows `nghttp2_session_mem_send()` to be called re-entrantly while `nghttp2_session_mem_recv()` is executing, resulting in a heap-use-after-free.

This vulnerability affects Node.js **26.x**, **24.x**, and **22.x**.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 45 development cycle.
Changing version to 45.
