Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in libuv and Node.js up to nodejs_20.19.0+dfsg-1_i386.deb on Debian. Affected is an unknown code. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a reliance on machine-dependent data representation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-1102. The code uses a data representation that relies on low-level
data representation or constructs that may vary across different processors,
physical machines, OSes, or other physical components. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
Certain build processes for libuv and Node.js for 32-bit systems, such as for the nodejs binary package through nodejs_20.19.0+dfsg-1_i386.deb for Debian GNU/Linux, have an inconsistent off_t size (e.g., building on i386 Debian always uses _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 for the libuv dynamic library, but uses the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS global system default of 32 for nodejs), leading to out-of-bounds access. NOTE: this is not a problem in the Node.js software itself. In particular, the Node.js website's download page does not offer prebuilt Node.js for Linux on i386.
The advisory is available at bugzilla.redhat.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2025-47153 since 05/01/2025. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.
