4.8 MEDIUM

Remote and unauthenticated, but AC:H and only partial C/I impact because a bypass depends on an application using the hostname for a security decision; no availability impact, consistent with the vendor's Medium rating rather than 9.8.

vuln.today treats the vendor’s rating as authoritative. A higher third-party CVSS (e.g. CISA-ADP) is shown for transparency but does not drive the headline severity.

Description PRE-NVD

Disclosed via GitHub release of nodejs/node. NVD scoring and full description are pending.

AnalysisAI

Hostname validation bypass in Node.js (versions 22.22.3, 24.16.0, and 26.3.0) lets attackers smuggle embedded NUL bytes through the dns and net subsystems, truncating a hostname after the NUL so that application-level allowlists, SNI checks, or destination filters validate one host while the runtime resolves or connects to another. The Node.js project rates this specific issue Medium and shipped the fix in its June 2026 security release; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS exploitation probability is low (0.28%, 20th percentile), and it is not in CISA KEV. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an application built on the affected Node.js versions (22.22.3, 24.16.0, or 26.3.0) that (1) accepts attacker-influenced hostnames and (2) uses that hostname value in a security-relevant comparison - an SSRF/destination allowlist, SNI/server-identity check, or similar - before handing it to the dns or net modules. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals conflict and must be reconciled before prioritization. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An application accepts a user-supplied URL or hostname, validates it against an allowlist of permitted hosts, then passes it to Node's net or dns API to connect. An attacker submits 'allowed-host.example.com\x00.evil.com'; the JavaScript allowlist check sees the full benign-looking string and passes it, but the resolver/socket truncates at the NUL and connects to 'allowed-host.example.com' (or, reversed, to an attacker host), bypassing intended access control. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Node.js 26.3.1 on the Current line, or the corresponding patched 24.x and 22.x releases from the same June 2026 batch (https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/june-2026-security-releases and https://github.com/nodejs/node/releases/tag/v26.3.1). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
