This is specific to the npm package that installs cmake, so isn't
relevant to Buildroot.

https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-10642#vulnCurrentDescriptionTitle
"cmake installs the cmake x86 linux binaries. cmake downloads
binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to
MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code
execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested binary with
an attacker controlled binary if the attacker is on the
network or positioned in between the user and the remote server."
