Fix it by installing/updating a more recent version of node.js, for example, I have installed the LTS version, and fixed the error for myself:

<code>
# Using Ubuntu, as root
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_lts.x | sudo -E bash -
apt-get install -y nodejs

# Using Debian, as root
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | bash -
apt-get install -y nodejs
</code>
