Summary
CVE-2023-30588 is a vulnerability affecting Node.js versions 16, 18, and 20. It allows for Denial of Service (DoS) attacks when an invalid public key is used to generate an x509 certificate through the crypto.X509Certificate() API. Instead of terminating as expected, the process continues and becomes susceptible to interruptions caused by an attacker. These interruptions can force the application to terminate and cause a DoS scenario, resulting in the loss of the current context for users.
