GHSA-gf8q-jrpm-jvxq

URL parsing in node-forge could lead to undesired behavior.

Quick fix

GHSA-gf8q-jrpm-jvxq — node-forge: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

npm install node-forge@1.0.0

Details

### Impact The regex used for the `forge.util.parseUrl` API would not properly parse certain inputs resulting in a parsed data structure that could lead to undesired behavior.

### Patches `forge.util.parseUrl` and other very old related URL APIs were removed in 1.0.0 in favor of letting applications use the more modern WHATWG URL Standard API.

### Workarounds Ensure code does not directly or indirectly call `forge.util.parseUrl` with untrusted input.
