CVE-2020-7720
Description
A flaw was found in nodejs-node-forge. A Prototype Pollution via the util.setPath function is possible.
Statement
In Red Hat Openshift Container Storage 4 the noobaa-core container includes the affected version of node-forge as a dependency of google-p12-pem, however the vulnerable function util.setPath is not being used and hence this issue has been rated as having a security impact of Low.
In OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) the prometheus container is behind OpenShift OAuth restricting access to the vulnerable node-forge library to authenticated users only, therefore the impact is Low.

Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
