Description:
8
 
 Node.js versions 9.7.0 and later and 10.x are vulnerable and the severity
9
 
 is MEDIUM. A bug introduced in 9.7.0 increases the memory consumed when
10
 
 reading from the network into JavaScript using the net.Socket object
11
 
 directly as a stream. An attacker could use this cause a denial of service
12
 
 by sending tiny chunks of data in short succession. This vulnerability was
13
 
 restored by reverting to the prior behaviour.
