✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://images.redhat.com/ Workaround: There is no practical mitigation for this vulnerability. The brace-expansion package is typically a transitive dependency pulled in via minimatch and glob, making it difficult to isolate. Users should upgrade to a fixed version of brace-expansion when one becomes available. Workaround: Applications using Node.js that leverage the experimental `node:sqlite` SQL tag store feature should avoid using `DatabaseSync#createTagStore()` and `StatementSyncIterator` to prevent unintended data modification. If this feature is not essential, refactoring the application to remove its usage will mitigate the vulnerability. Workaround: If unused, avoid dns.resolveAny() (prefer narrower resolvers such as resolve4 / lookup). Use trusted DNS resolvers and block untrusted DNS paths. Note that replacing dns.resolveAny() with narrower resolvers may break application features that depend on retrieving non-IP records, such as MX or TXT. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
