Quoting the CVE:
Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before 28.0.1500.95, allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have
unspecified other impact via vectors that leverage "type confusion."
Likely has zero impact on node.js because it only runs local, trusted
code but let's apply it anyway.
This is a back-port of upstream commit r15665. Original commit log:
Use internal array as API function cache.

Flags and modes aren't the same, symlinks are followed in all of the
path but the last component, docs should say something about what the
mode argument is for and when its used, fs.openSync should point to the
function that contains the docs for its args, as fs.writeSync does.
Run the garbage collector before running the actual test. It doesn't
matter now but if in the future something in node.js core creates a lot
of reclaimable garbage, that will break the test's expectation.
* Run the garbage collector before creating the big array. It doesn't
matter now but if in the future something in node.js core creates
a lot of reclaimable garbage, that will break the test's expectation.
* The first RSS check was being done too late. The garbage collector
might have run before the check, throwing off the 'reclaimed memory'
calculation.
* Due to changes in how V8 represents the big array internally, the
actual memory usage is just below 256 MB on x64. Update the test's
expectation.
Before this commit, events were set to undefined rather than deleted
from the EventEmitter's backing dictionary for performance reasons:
`delete obj.key` causes a transition of the dictionary's hidden class
and that can be costly.
Unfortunately, that introduces a memory leak when many events are added
and then removed again. The strings containing the event names are never
reclaimed by the garbage collector because they remain part of the
dictionary.
That's why this commit makes EventEmitter delete events again. This
effectively reverts commit 0397223.
Fixes#5970.
Avoid a costly buffer-to-string operation. Instead, allocate a new
buffer, copy the chunk header and data into it and send that.
The speed difference is negligible on small payloads but it really
shines with larger (10+ kB) chunks. benchmark/http/end-vs-write-end
with 64 kB chunks gives 45-50% higher throughput. With 1 MB chunks,
the difference is a staggering 590%.
Of course, YMMV will vary with real workloads and networks but this
commit should have a positive impact on CPU and memory consumption.
Big kudos to Wyatt Preul (@wpreul) for reporting the issue and providing
the initial patch.
Fixes#5941 and #5944.
Use the StringBytes::IsValidString() function introduced in commit
dce26cc to ensure that the input string meets the expectations of the
other StringBytes functions before processing it further.
Fixes the following assertion:
Assertion failed: (str->Length() % 2 == 0 && "invalid hex string
length"), function StorageSize, file ../../src/string_bytes.cc,
line 301.
Fixes#5725.
Performs a quick, non-exhaustive check on the input string to see if
it's compatible with the specified string encoding.
Curently it only checks that hex strings have a length that is a
multiple of two.
The title shouldn't be too long; libuv's uv_set_process_title() out of
security considerations no longer overwrites envp, only argv, so the
maximum title length is possibly quite short.
Fixes#5908.
And process.getgid() too.
Commit ed80638 changed fs.chown() and fs.fchown() to only accept
unsigned integers. Make process.getuid() and process.getgid() follow
suit.
This commit should unbreak npm on OS X - it's hitting the new 'uid must
be an unsigned int' check when installing as e.g. user 'nobody' (which
has an UID of -2 in /etc/passwd or 4294967294 when cast to an uid_t.)
Fixes#5904.

Before this commit, fs.chown() and fs.fchown() coerced the uid and gid
arguments to signed integers which is wrong because uid_t and gid_t are
unsigned on most all platforms and IDs that don't fit in a signed
integer do exist.
This commit changes the aforementioned functions to take unsigned ints
instead. No test because we can't assume the system has [GU]IDs that
large.
This change depends on joyent/libuv@d779eb5.
Fixes#5890.
When using url.parse(), path and pathname usually return '/' when there
is no path available. However when you have a protocol that contains
non-lowercase letters and the input string does not have a trailing
slash, both path and pathname will be undefined.
The Streams API doc is now broken up into 3 sections:
1. API for Consumers
2. API for Implementors
3. Details and Extras
This addresses one of the biggest points of confusion for new users who
start to consume streams, and get the impression that they have to do
lots of extra work and implement classes and such, just to get some data
out of a file.
Previously there was no way to pass a Function callback directly to
MakeCallback and support domains. The check has been added so that users
never have to worry about supporting domains while using MakeCallback.
X509_STORE_add_cert increment reference of passed `x509` cert,
`X509_free` must be called to avoid memory leak.
