CVE-2026-75899
Description
A flaw was found in fast-uri, a URI parser for Node.js. The component incorrectly decodes percent escapes in a hostname twice during URI parsing and authority recomposition. This double decoding can allow a remote attacker to manipulate a URI to point to a different network destination, such as a loopback address. This vulnerability can lead to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and bypass host-based security policies.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
