Doc Text:
A flaw was found in nodejs-glob-parent. The enclosure regex used to check for glob enclosures containing backslashes is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service attacks. This flaw allows an attacker to cause a denial of service if they can supply a malicious string to the glob-parent function. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

Description Jason Shepherd 2021-04-01 01:08:44 UTC 
The enclosure regex used to check for glob enclosures containing backslash is vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service attacks. An attacker can use this flaw to cause a denial of service if they can supply a malicious string to the glob-parent function.

Comment 3 Jason Shepherd 2021-04-01 01:17:54 UTC 
Created nodejs-glob-parent tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1945464]
Comment 7 Tomas Hoger 2021-04-09 19:05:11 UTC 
This issues affects the version of glob-parent bundled with the nodejs-nodemon packages in Red Ha Software Collections and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.  However, there does not seem to be any practical exposure of the issue to untrusted inputs via nodemon, nodemon only uses glob-parent to process paths to directories it is configured to watch.  I.e. the input passed to glob-parent comes form nodemon's configuration file.
Comment 13 Borja Tarraso 2021-04-27 08:57:27 UTC 
Statement:

While some components do package a vulnerable version of glob-parent, access to them requires OpenShift OAuth credentials and hence have been marked with a Low impact. This applies to the following products:
   - OpenShift Container Platform (OCP)
   - OpenShift ServiceMesh (OSSM)
   - Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (RHACM)
