A remote peer can trigger a denial of service (DoS) by abruptly disconnecting while data is being compressed using the zlib streaming interface. Under specific conditions where stream settings are adjusted during active compression, a sudden disconnection causes an internal assertion failure. Because this error bypasses standard application error handlers, it terminates the Node.js process unexpectedly.\nThis vulnerability is rated as Moderate because although a remote unauthenticated attacker can crash the runtime environment, successful exploitation requires precise timing alongside an uncommon programming pattern. In typical Red Hat enterprise environments, applications rarely dynamically adjust compression parameters during active data transmission to remote clients.
