DescriptionNVD

fastify is a fast and low overhead web framework for Node.js. Versions of fastify before 5.12.1 are affected by a schema validation bypass when a request body schema targets a root primitive value. When the schema validates a top-level primitive such as an integer, Ajv can coerce a JSON string into the expected type during validation, but Fastify does not replace the root request body with the coerced value, so the route handler receives the original unvalidated string. As a result, a request that should have failed validation can reach application logic with a value that does not satisfy the schema, which can undermine integrity and access-control checks that rely on the validated type. Users should upgrade to fastify 5.12.1, which fixes the mismatch. No known workarounds are available.

AnalysisAI

Schema validation bypass in fastify before version 5.12.1 allows authenticated network attackers to submit request bodies that circumvent type enforcement when schemas target root-level primitive values. When Ajv coerces a submitted JSON string to match an expected integer or other primitive type during validation, fastify fails to propagate the coerced value back to the route handler, which instead receives the original unvalidated string. …
