Description:
 Node.js: All versions prior to Node.js 6.15.0, 8.14.0, 10.14.0 and 11.3.0:
 Hostname spoofing in URL parser for javascript protocol: If a Node.js
 application is using url.parse() to determine the URL hostname, that
 hostname can be spoofed by using a mixed case "javascript:" (e.g.
 "javAscript:") protocol (other protocols are not affected). If security
 decisions are made about the URL based on the hostname, they may be
 incorrect.
Ubuntu-Description:
 Martin Bajanik discovered that the url.parse() method would return incorrect
 results if it received specially crafted input. An attacker could use this
 vulnerability to spoof the hostname and bypass hostname-specific security
 controls.
