Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31958)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled resource consumption in multipart/form-data parsing on the main thread when processing very large multipart request bodies with many parts. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted multipart/form-data request to cause a denial of service.

The number of multipart parts is limited only by the max_body_size setting.


2) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-4800)

CWE-ID: CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to improper control of code generation in _.template when processing untrusted options.imports key names. A remote attacker can supply crafted imports key names to execute arbitrary code.

Code execution occurs at template compilation time. If Object.prototype has been polluted by another vector, inherited polluted keys can also be copied into the imports object and passed to Function().
