CVE-2021-44532

It was found that node.js did not safely read the x509 certificate generalName format properly, resulting in data injection. A certificate could use a specially crafted extension in order to be successfully validated, permitting an attacker to impersonate a trusted host.

Red Hat Quay from version 3.4 consumes nodejs from RHEL, so security tracking is provided by the container health index on the customer portal [1]. Additionally there is no impact from this issue on Quay 3.3 and 3.2 because nodejs is only used at build time and is no longer shipped, starting with Quay 3.5 [2].
