Node.js has also announced security releases: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2026-securi...

Unrelated, the Nodejs patch is to strip the emudhra certs, which is its own separate security incident.

Strange coincidence? Can someone see a potential connection here?

Yes, the potential connection is the fact that we now live in the age of AI.

Could be related to the eMudhra Intermediate CA compromise.
