Package : libuv1
CVE ID : CVE-2024-24806
Debian Bug : 1063484

It was discovered that the uv_getaddrinfo() function in libuv, an
asynchronous event notification library, incorrectly truncated certain
hostnames, which may result in bypass of security measures on internal
APIs or SSRF attacks.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.40.0-2+deb11u1.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.44.2-1+deb12u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libuv1 packages.

For the detailed security status of libuv1 please refer to
