bootstrap: implement run-time user-land snapshots via --build-snapshot and --snapshot-blob

This patch introduces --build-snapshot and --snapshot-blob options for creating and using user land snapshots.

To generate a snapshot using snapshot.js as an entry point and write the snapshot blob to snapshot.blob:

echo "globalThis.foo = 'I am from the snapshot'" > snapshot.js
node --snapshot-blob snapshot.blob --build-snapshot snapshot.js

To restore application state from snapshot.blob, with index.js as the entry point script for the deserialized application:

echo "console.log(globalThis.foo)" > index.js
node --snapshot-blob snapshot.blob index.js
# => I am from the snapshot

Users can also use the v8.startupSnapshot API to specify an entry point at snapshot building time, thus avoiding the need of an additional entry script at deserialization time:

echo "require('v8').startupSnapshot.setDeserializeMainFunction(() => console.log('I am from the snapshot'))" > snapshot.js
node --snapshot-blob snapshot.blob --build-snapshot snapshot.js
node --snapshot-blob snapshot.blob
# => I am from the snapshot

Notable Changes

Experimental ESM Loader Hooks API

Node.js ESM Loader hooks now support multiple custom loaders, and composition is achieved via "chaining": foo-loader calls bar-loader calls qux-loader (a custom loader must now signal a short circuit when intentionally not calling the next). See the ESM docs for details.

Real-world use-cases are laid out for end-users with working examples in the article Custom ESM loaders: Who, what, when, where, why, how.

2022-07-07, Version 18.5.0 (Current), @RafaelGSS

This is a security release.

Notable changes

The following CVEs are fixed in this release:

  • CVE-2022-2097: OpenSSL - AES OCB fails to encrypt some bytes (Medium)
  • CVE-2022-32212: DNS rebinding in --inspect via invalid IP addresses (High)
  • CVE-2022-32213: HTTP Request Smuggling - Flawed Parsing of Transfer-Encoding (Medium)
  • CVE-2022-32214: HTTP Request Smuggling - Improper Delimiting of Header Fields (Medium)
  • CVE-2022-32215: HTTP Request Smuggling - Incorrect Parsing of Multi-line Transfer-Encoding (Medium)
  • CVE-2022-32222: Attempt to read openssl.cnf from /home/iojs/build/ upon startup (Medium)
  • CVE-2022-32223: DLL Hijacking on Windows (High)

More detailed information on each of the vulnerabilities can be found in July 7th 2022 Security Releases blog post.

llhttp updated to 6.0.7

llhttp is updated to 6.0.7 which includes fixes for the following vulnerabilities.

  • HTTP Request Smuggling - Flawed Parsing of Transfer-Encoding (Medium)(CVE-2022-32213 ): The llhttp parser in the http module does not correctly parse and validate Transfer-Encoding headers. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS).
  • HTTP Request Smuggling - Improper Delimiting of Header Fields (Medium)(CVE-2022-32214): The llhttp parser in the http module does not strictly use the CRLF sequence to delimit HTTP requests. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling.
    • Note: This can be considered a breaking change due to disabling LF header delimiting. To enable LF header delimiting you can specify the --insecure-http-parser command-line flag, but note that this will additionally enable other insecure behaviours.
  • HTTP Request Smuggling - Incorrect Parsing of Multi-line Transfer-Encoding (Medium)(CVE-2022-32215): The llhttp parser in the http module does not correctly handle multi-line Transfer-Encoding headers. This can lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS).

Some of these fixes required breaking changes, so you may be impacted by this update.

Default OpenSSL Configuration

To resolve CVE-2022-32223: DLL Hijacking on Windows (High), changes were made to how Node.js loads OpenSSL configuration by default.

CVE-2022-32223 could be exploited if the victim has the following dependencies on Windows machine:

  • OpenSSL has been installed and C:\Program Files\Common Files\SSL\openssl.cnf exists.

Whenever the above conditions are present, node.exe will search for providers.dll in the current user directory. After that, node.exe will try to search for providers.dll by the DLL Search Order in Windows. An attacker can place the malicious file providers.dll under a variety of paths to exploit this vulnerability.

Node.js can use an OpenSSL configuration file by specifying the environment variable OPENSSL_CONF, or using the command-line option --openssl-conf, and if none of those are specified will default to reading the default OpenSSL configuration file openssl.cnf.

From this release, Node.js will only read a section that is, by default, named nodejs_conf. If you were previously relying on the configuration specified in the shared section of the openssl.cnf file, you may be affected by this change. You can fall back to the previous behavior to read the default section by:

  • Specifying the --openssl-shared-config command-line flag; or
  • Creating a new nodejs_conf section in that file and copying the contents of the default section into the new nodejs_conf section.

Note that when specifying --openssl-shared-config or defining nodejs_conf in your openssl.cnf, you should be cautious and review your configuration as it could lead to you being vulnerable to similar DLL exploit attacks.

2022-04-19, Version 18.0.0 (Current), @BethGriggs

Node.js 18 is here! Highlights include the update of the V8 JavaScript engine to 10.1, global fetch enabled by default, and a core test runner module.

Initially, Node.js 18 will replace Node.js 17 as our ‘Current’ release line. As per the release schedule, Node.js 18 will be the ‘Current’ release for the next 6 months and then promoted to Long-term Support (LTS) in October 2022. Once promoted to long-term support the release will be designated the codename ‘Hydrogen’. Node.js 18 will be supported until April 2025.

Notable Changes

Deprecations and Removals

  • (SEMVER-MAJOR) fs: runtime deprecate string coercion in fs.write, fs.writeFileSync (Livia Medeiros) #42607
  • (SEMVER-MAJOR) dns: remove dns.lookup and dnsPromises.lookup options type coercion (Antoine du Hamel) #41431
  • (SEMVER-MAJOR) process: runtime deprecate multipleResolves (Benjamin Gruenbaum) #41896
  • (SEMVER-MAJOR) stream: remove thenable support (Robert Nagy) #40773
  • (SEMVER-MAJOR) tls: move tls.parseCertString to end-of-life (Tobias Nießen) #41479

fetch (experimental)

An experimental fetch API is available on the global scope by default. The implementation is based upon undici, an HTTP/1.1 client written for Node.js by contributors to the project.

const res = await fetch('https://nodejs.org/api/documentation.json');
if (res.ok) {
  const data = await res.json();
  console.log(data);
}

Through this addition, the following globals are made available: fetch, FormData, Headers, Request, Response.

Disable this API with the --no-experimental-fetch command-line flag.

Contributed by Michaël Zasso in #41811.

HTTP Timeouts

server.headersTimeout which limits the amount of time the parser will wait to receive the complete HTTP headers is now set to 60000 (60 seconds) by default.

server.requestTimeout which sets the timeout value in milliseconds for receiving the entire request from the client is now set to 300000 (5 minutes) by default.

If these timeouts expire, the server responds with status 408 without forwarding the request to the request listener and then closes the connection.

Both timeouts must be set to a non-zero value to protect against potential Denial-of-Service attacks in case the server is deployed without a reverse proxy in front.

Contributed by Paolo Insogna in #41263.

Test Runner module (experimental)

The node:test module facilitates the creation of JavaScript tests that report results in TAP format. To access it:

import test from 'node:test';

This module is only available under the node: scheme.

The following is an example implementation of a parent test with two subtests:

test('top level test', async (t) => {
  await t.test('subtest 1', (t) => {
    assert.strictEqual(1, 1);
  });

  await t.test('subtest 2', (t) => {
    assert.strictEqual(2, 2);
  });
});

Toolchain and Compiler Upgrades

  • Prebuilt binaries for Linux are now built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and are compatible with Linux distributions based on glibc 2.28 or later, for example, Debian 10, RHEL 8, Ubuntu 20.04.
  • Prebuilt binaries for macOS now require macOS 10.15 or later.
  • For AIX the minimum supported architecture has been raised from Power 7 to Power 8.

Prebuilt binaries for 32-bit Windows will initially not be available due to issues building the V8 dependency in Node.js. We hope to restore 32-bit Windows binaries for Node.js 18 with a future V8 update.

Node.js does not support running on operating systems that are no longer supported by their vendor. For operating systems where their vendor has planned to end support earlier than April 2025, such as Windows 8.1 (January 2023) and Windows Server 2012 R2 (October 2023), support for Node.js 18 will end at the earlier date.

Full details about the supported toolchains and compilers are documented in the Node.js BUILDING.md file.

V8 10.1

The V8 engine is updated to version 10.1, which is part of Chromium 101. Compared to the version included in Node.js 17.9.0, the following new features are included:

The data format returned by the serialization API (v8.serialize(value)) has changed, and cannot be deserialized by earlier versions of Node.js. On the other hand, it is still possible to deserialize the previous format, as the API is backwards-compatible.

Contributed by Michaël Zasso in nodejs#42657.

Web Streams API (experimental)

Node.js now exposes the experimental implementation of the Web Streams API on the global scope. This means the following APIs are now globally available:

  • ReadableStream, ReadableStreamDefaultReader, ReadableStreamBYOBReader, ReadableStreamBYOBRequest, ReadableByteStreamController, ReadableStreamDefaultController, TransformStream, TransformStreamDefaultController, WritableStream, WritableStreamDefaultWriter, WritableStreamDefaultController, ByteLengthQueuingStrategy, CountQueuingStrategy, TextEncoderStream, TextDecoderStream, CompressionStream, DecompressionStream.
