2019-02-28, Version 6.17.0 'Boron' (LTS)

This is a security release. All Node.js users should consult the security
release summary at:

  https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/february-2019-security-releases/

for details on patched vulnerabilities.

Fixes for the following CVEs are included in this release:

  * Node.js: Denial of Service with keep-alive HTTP connections
    (CVE-2019-5739)
  * Node.js: Slowloris HTTP Denial of Service with keep-alive
    (CVE-2019-5737)
  * OpenSSL: 0-byte record padding oracle (CVE-2019-1559)

Notable Changes:

* deps: OpenSSL has been upgraded to 1.0.2r which contains a fix for
  CVE-2019-1559 (https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20190226.txt). Under
  certain circumstances, a TLS server can be forced to respond differently to
  a client if a zero-byte record is received with an invalid padding
  compared to a zero-byte record with an invalid MAC. This can be used as the
  basis of a padding oracle attack to decrypt data.
* http:
  - Backport `server.keepAliveTimeout` to prevent keep-alive HTTP and HTTPS
    connections remaining open and inactive for an extended period of time,
    leading to a potential Denial of Service (DoS).
    (CVE-2019-5739 / Timur Shemsedinov, Matteo Collina)
  - Further prevention of "Slowloris" attacks on HTTP and HTTPS
    connections by consistently applying the receive timeout set by
    `server.headersTimeout` to connections in keep-alive mode. Reported by
    Marco Pracucci (https://voxnest.com). (CVE-2019-5737 / Matteo Collina)
