CVEID: CVE-2019-5737
DESCRIPTION: Node.js is vulnerable to a denial of service. By establishing an HTTP or HTTPS connection in keep-alive mode and sending headers very slowly to force the connection and associated resources to stay alive for a long period of time, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume all available resources.
