The 1.3.19 release had a critical bug: any packages published with it
could not be installed, because the shasum would be incorrect.
Thankfully, 1.3.19 was published using 1.3.19, so could not be installed
by any users! However, if it goes out as part of a Node.js release,
then obviously that would be a problem.
This is a comment change, where it originally says disabling TLS
Compression protects against BEAST attack. But in fact, it is the
CRIME attack(Compression Ratio Info-leak Made Easy) that makes use
of TLS Compression and not BEAST.
BEAST(Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) is an entirely another variant
making use of the chosen boundary attack against CBC mode in
encryption.
Just making sure, that the exact reason for disabling TLS compression
must be made clear and not be misleading with some other attack.
Quoting CVE-2013-6639:
The DehoistArrayIndex function in hydrogen-dehoist.cc in Google V8
before 3.22.24.7, as used in Google Chrome before 31.0.1650.63,
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds
write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via JavaScript code
that sets the value of an array element with a crafted index.
Quoting CVE-2013-6640:
The DehoistArrayIndex function in hydrogen-dehoist.cc in Google V8
before 3.22.24.7, as used in Google Chrome before 31.0.1650.63,
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds
read) via JavaScript code that sets a variable to the value of an
array element with a crafted index.
Like 6b92a7, this is unlikely to affect node.js because it only runs
local, trusted code. However, if there exists some module somewhere
that populates an array index with remotely provided data this could
very well be used to crash a remote server running node. Defense in
depth and all.
This is a backport of upstream commit r17801. Original commit log:
Limit size of dehoistable array indices

The test is expecting an invalid result for the loopback
interface network mask, but this issue was fixed in
libuv commit 1d5c61a8b31257733c41fb507762d3eb56eecb2d
Closes#5262#6673
When `symlink`, `link` or `rename` report EEXIST, ENOTEMPTY or EPERM -
the destination file name should be included in the error message,
instead of source file name.
fix#6510
NOTE: Also removed `.receivedShutdown` method of `Connection` it wasn't
documented anywhere, and was rewritten with `true` after receiving
`close_notify`.
fix#6638
FSEventStream may emit events that happened right before it has started.
Ignore changes emitted for the directory itself, since they may come
from the stale events.
This was failing if the file didn't already exist.
Fixes unit tests on Windows:
* test\simple\test-http-curl-chunk-problem.js
* test\simple\test-pipe-file-to-http.js
This adds two new member functions getAuthTag and setAuthTag that
are useful for AES-GCM encryption modes. Use getAuthTag after
Cipheriv.final, transmit the tag along with the data and use
Decipheriv.setAuthTag to have the encrypted data verified.
gyp by default now tries to process gyp files in parallel by using
python's multiprocessing module, but it has problems on oddball
platforms. We don't have many files or complex dependency chains that
would benefit from parallel processing so disable by deafult
fixes#6640
The android generator for gyp currently doesn't support
--generator-output - this makes embedding node.js as project dependency
difficult for android projects.
Note: the generated files in deps/uv should be ignored in libuv's
.gitignore
1. Swallow errors when sending internal NODE_HANDLE_ACK messages, so
they don't crash the process.
2. Queue process.disconnect() if there are any pending queued messages.
Fixes test-child-process-fork-net2.js on win.
