2016-03-02 Version 0.12.11 (LTS) Release
Notable changes: * http_parser: Update to http-parser 2.3.2 to fix an unintentionally strict limitation of allowable header characters. (James M Snell) #5241 * domains: - Prevent an exit due to an exception being thrown rather than emitting an 'uncaughtException' event on the `process` object when no error handler is set on the domain within which an error is thrown and an 'uncaughtException' event listener is set on `process`. (Julien Gilli) #3885 - Fix an issue where the process would not abort in the proper function call if an error is thrown within a domain with no error handler and `--abort-on-uncaught-exception` is used. (Julien Gilli) #3885 * openssl: Upgrade from 1.0.2f to 1.0.2g (Ben Noordhuis) #5509 - Fix a double-free defect in parsing malformed DSA keys that may potentially be used for DoS or memory corruption attacks. It is likely to be very difficult to use this defect for a practical attack and is therefore considered low severity for Node.js users. More info is available at https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0705 - Fix a defect that can cause memory corruption in certain very rare cases relating to the internal `BN_hex2bn()` and `BN_dec2bn()` functions. It is believed that Node.js is not invoking the code paths that use these functions so practical attacks via Node.js using this defect are _unlikely_ to be possible. More info is available at https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#2016-0797 - Fix a defect that makes the CacheBleed Attack (https://ssrg.nicta.com.au/projects/TS/cachebleed/) possible. This defect enables attackers to execute side-channel attacks leading to the potential recovery of entire RSA private keys. It only affects the Intel Sandy Bridge (and possibly older) microarchitecture when using hyper-threading. Newer microarchitectures, including Haswell, are unaffected.
