Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in Node.js, affecting users of the experimental permission model when the --allow-fs-write flag is used. The Node.js Permission Model does not operate on file descriptors; however, operations such as
fs.fchown or fs.fchmod can use a "read-only" file descriptor to change the owner and permissions of a file. This issue is related to shortcomings in access control.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
