Network-reachable, no auth needed, low complexity; added C:L because SSRF inherently enables reading responses from internal services beyond the integrity bypass.

DescriptionCVE.org

fast-uri is a URI parser for Node.js. It decodes percent escapes in a hostname during parsing and then decodes the parsed hostname a second time during authority recomposition, so a single call to normalize or resolve can turn nested percent-encoded input into a different network destination such as a loopback hostname or address. For example, a doubly encoded host that spells out a loopback name decodes to that live host in one operation, which contradicts RFC 3986 section 2.4 that an implementation must not decode the same string more than once. An application that normalizes or resolves an untrusted HTTP-family URI before outbound routing, redirect validation, or a host-policy check can receive a destination different from the one the original encoded host represented, giving a server-side request forgery and host-policy bypass primitive. This is an incomplete-fix variant of CVE-2026-6322. The affected versions are 2.4.1 up to but not including 2.4.5, 3.1.2 up to but not including 3.1.6, and 4.0.0 up to but not including 4.1.3. The issue is fixed in 2.4.5, 3.1.6, and 4.1.3, which normalize percent escapes once and preserve encoded percent signs. Users should upgrade to a patched version.

AnalysisAI

Double-decoding of percent-encoded hostnames in fast-uri (Node.js URI parser) creates a server-side request forgery and host-policy bypass primitive in versions 2.4.1-2.4.4, 3.1.2-3.1.5, and 4.0.0-4.1.2. The library decodes percent escapes once during hostname parsing and again during authority recomposition, so a single normalize or resolve call on a doubly-encoded input can silently resolve to a different network destination - including loopback addresses - than the encoded form represents. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The vulnerable condition is triggered when an application passes an untrusted URI containing a doubly percent-encoded hostname to fast-uri's normalize or resolve functions - not merely to its parser. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.5 High score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) accurately captures the remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity nature of the attack vector. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker submits a crafted HTTP request to a vulnerable application containing a URI with a doubly percent-encoded hostname - for example, encoding 'localhost' such that two rounds of percent-decoding are required to reveal it. The application calls fast-uri's normalize or resolve function to validate or rewrite the URI before forwarding, but fast-uri's two-pass decode silently transforms the encoded host into 'localhost' (or another internal address). …
Remediation Upgrade fast-uri to the vendor-released patched versions: 2.4.5, 3.1.6, or 4.1.3, which normalize percent escapes exactly once and preserve encoded percent signs to prevent re-decoding. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all Node.js applications and dependencies using fast-uri versions 2.4.1-2.4.4, 3.1.2-3.1.5, or 4.0.0-4.1.2, prioritizing services that make outbound network requests or handle user-supplied URLs. …
