# Security | ||
|
||
If you find a security vulnerability in Node.js, please report it to | ||
security@nodejs.org. Please withhold public disclosure until after the security | ||
team has addressed the vulnerability. | ||
|
||
The security team will acknowledge your email within 24 hours. You will receive | ||
a more detailed response within 48 hours. | ||
|
||
There are no hard and fast rules to determine if a bug is worth reporting as a | ||
security issue. Here are some examples of past issues and what the Security | ||
Response Team thinks of them. When in doubt, please do send us a report | ||
nonetheless. | ||
|
||
## Public disclosure preferred | ||
|
||
- [#14519](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/14519): _Internal domain | ||
function can be used to cause segfaults_. Requires the ability to execute | ||
arbitrary JavaScript code. That is already the highest level of privilege | ||
possible. | ||
|
||
## Private disclosure preferred | ||
|
||
- [CVE-2016-7099](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/september-2016-security-releases/): | ||
_Fix invalid wildcard certificate validation check_. This was a high-severity | ||
defect. It caused Node.js TLS clients to accept invalid wildcard certificates. | ||
|
||
- [#5507](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/5507): _Fix a defect that makes | ||
the CacheBleed Attack possible_. Many, though not all, OpenSSL vulnerabilities | ||
in the TLS/SSL protocols also affect Node.js. | ||
|
||
- [CVE-2016-2216](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/february-2016-security-releases/): | ||
_Fix defects in HTTP header parsing for requests and responses that can allow | ||
response splitting_. This was a remotely-exploitable defect in the Node.js | ||
HTTP implementation. | ||
|
||
When in doubt, please do send us a report. |
