CRITICAL 10.0

Description

Axios is a promise based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js. Prior to 1.15.0, the Axios library is vulnerable to a specific "Gadget" attack chain that allows Prototype Pollution in any third-party dependency to be escalated into Remote Code Execution (RCE) or Full Cloud Compromise (via AWS IMDSv2 bypass). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.15.0.

Analysis

Remote code execution affects Axios HTTP client library versions prior to 1.15.0 via gadget chain escalation of prototype pollution vulnerabilities in third-party dependencies. Unauthenticated network attackers can exploit this chaining mechanism to achieve full remote code execution or cloud compromise through AWS IMDSv2 bypass. …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

Remediation

Within 24 hours: Inventory all applications and dependencies using Axios versions prior to 1.15.0 across development, staging, and production environments. Within 7 days: Upgrade Axios to version 1.15.0 or later on all systems; if upgrade is blocked by compatibility issues, implement network segmentation to restrict HTTP client access and disable AWS IMDSv2 fallback by enforcing IMDSv2-only enforcement. …
