This is a security release.

Notable changes:

Improper handling of URI Subject Alternative Names (Medium)(CVE-2021-44531)
- Accepting arbitrary Subject Alternative Name (SAN) types, unless a PKI
is specifically defined to use a particular SAN type, can result in
bypassing name-constrained intermediates. Node.js was accepting URI SAN
types, which PKIs are often not defined to use. Additionally, when a
protocol allows URI SANs, Node.js did not match the URI correctly.
- Versions of Node.js with the fix for this disable the URI SAN type when
checking a certificate against a hostname. This behavior can be
reverted through the `--security-revert` command-line option.
- More details will be available at
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-44531

Certificate Verification Bypass via String Injection (Medium)(CVE-2021-44532)
- Node.js converts SANs (Subject Alternative Names) to a string format.
It uses this string to check peer certificates against hostnames when
validating connections. The string format was subject to an injection
vulnerability when name constraints were used within a certificate
chain, allowing the bypass of these name constraints.
- Versions of Node.js with the fix for this escape SANs containing the
problematic characters in order to prevent the injection. This
behavior can be reverted through the `--security-revert` command-line
option.
- More details will be available at
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-44532

Incorrect handling of certificate subject and issuer fields (Medium)(CVE-2021-44533)
- Node.js did not handle multi-value Relative Distinguished Names
correctly. Attackers could craft certificate subjects containing a
single-value Relative Distinguished Name that would be interpreted as a
multi-value Relative Distinguished Name, for example, in order to inject
a Common Name that would allow bypassing the certificate subject
verification.
- Affected versions of Node.js do not accept multi-value Relative
Distinguished Names and are thus not vulnerable to such attacks
themselves. However, third-party code that uses node's ambiguous
presentation of certificate subjects may be vulnerable.
- More details will be available at
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-44533

Prototype pollution via `console.table` properties (Low)(CVE-2022-21824)
- Due to the formatting logic of the `console.table()` function it was
not safe to allow user controlled input to be passed to the `properties`
parameter while simultaneously passing a plain object with at least one
property as the first parameter, which could be `__proto__`. The
prototype pollution has very limited control, in that it only allows an
empty string to be assigned numerical keys of the object prototype.
- Versions of Node.js with the fix for this use a null protoype for the
object these properties are being assigned to.
- More details will be available at
