 > - CVE-2020-8287: HTTP Request Smuggling in nodejs Affected versions of
 >   Node.js allow two copies of a header field in a http request.  For
 >   example, two Transfer-Encoding header fields.  In this case Node.js
 >   identifies the first header field and ignores the second.  This can lead
 >   to HTTP Request Smuggling

 > - CVE-2020-1971: OpenSSL - EDIPARTYNAME NULL pointer de-reference (High)
 >   This is a vulnerability in OpenSSL which may be exploited through Node.js.
