Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-25547)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing untrusted input with a regular expressions. When a remote attacker provides a pattern containing repeated numeric brace ranges, the library attempts to eagerly generate every possible combination synchronously. Because the expansion grows exponentially, even a small input can consume excessive CPU and memory and may crash the Node.js process.


2) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-26996)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing untrusted input with a regular expressions within "minimatch" function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
