Node.js 6 and 1 other: Misinterpretation of Input
CVE-2018-12123 is fixed in 2 products on 2 platforms, first by Node.js 6 6.17.0, released February 28, 2019. 1 other affected product has no fix yet. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
Node.js: All versions prior to Node.js 6.15.0, 8.14.0, 10.14.0 and 11.3.0: Hostname spoofing in URL parser for javascript protocol: If a Node.js application is using url.parse() to determine the URL hostname, that hostname can be spoofed by using a mixed case "javascript:" (e.g. "javAscript:") protocol (other protocols are not affected). If security decisions are made about the URL based on the hostname, they may be incorrect.
