Node.js and 1 other: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
CVE-2025-59464 is fixed in 12 products on 2 platforms, first by Node.js 25.0.0, released October 15, 2025. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
A memory leak in Node.js’s OpenSSL integration occurs when converting `X.509` certificate fields to UTF-8 without freeing the allocated buffer. When applications call `socket.getPeerCertificate(true)`, each certificate field leaks memory, allowing remote clients to trigger steady memory growth through repeated TLS connections. Over time this can lead to resource exhaustion and denial of service.
