AnalysisAI
HTTPS agent connection pooling in Node.js fails to distinguish PFX credentials when encoded as an object versus an array, enabling authentication bypass under specific mutual-TLS configurations. Affected are Node.js 22.x through 22.23.1, 24.x through 24.18.0, and 26.x through 26.5.0. A high-privileged local actor who controls HTTPS agent configuration can induce the runtime to reuse a TLS session authenticated with one PFX credential for a request that should require a different (or no) credential, undermining certificate-based identity verification. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
Node.js exposes an HTTPS Agent class that manages persistent TLS connection pools. When creating a pool lookup key, the agent serializes options - including the PFX field - to determine whether an existing authenticated session can be reused. CWE-287 (Improper Authentication) identifies the root cause: the key generation logic failed to canonicalize PFX credentials that arrive as a plain object versus an array of objects (both are valid Node.js API inputs for client certificates). This means two distinct PFX identities could hash to the same agent key, causing the connection pool to return an already-authenticated socket for a connection that should have required a different certificate. Affected CPE data from EUVD covers Node.js 22 ≤22.23.1, Node.js 24 ≤24.18.0, and Node.js 26 ≤26.5.0.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to Node.js 26.5.1 (Current line) as the confirmed patched release, per the vendor security release published 2026-07-29 at https://github.com/nodejs/node/releases/tag/v26.5.1. Corresponding patched versions for the LTS lines (22.x and 24.x) are expected in the same July 2026 security release cycle - consult https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/july-2026-security-releases for confirmed fix versions for those lines, as exact LTS patch versions are not independently confirmed from the available data. As a compensating control where immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict or disable HTTPS Agent connection reuse in code paths that rely on per-request PFX client certificates by setting agent: false on sensitive requests; this prevents session reuse entirely but increases connection overhead. Ensure high-privilege access to Node.js process configuration is tightly controlled via OS-level access controls to reduce the attack surface.
