How to fix?

Upgrade node to version 12.22.9, 14.18.3, 16.13.2, 17.3.1 or higher.

Overview

node is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of URL Encoding via Subject Alternative Name (SAN) types, which PKIs are not defined to use. That, can result in bypassing name-constrained intermediates. Additionally, when a protocol allows URI SANs, node does not match the URI correctly.
