CVE-2026-110095 fast-uri CVE debrief
CVE-2026-110095 fast-uri vulnerable to improper path equivalence in relative reference normalization. The vulnerability allows an attacker-supplied or user-supplied relative reference to escape its intended directory and point at a different resource. Node.js developers and administrators should assess exposure and upgrade to fixed versions. The issue is fixed in fast-uri 2.4.8, 3.1.9, and 4.2.3. Users should verify affected systems and apply workarounds if necessary. The vulnerability can lead to security issues in Node.js applications, including potential unauthorized access to resources and possible security bypass.

Who should care
Node.js developers and administrators using fast-uri in their applications should assess exposure and upgrade to fixed versions. They should verify affected systems and apply workarounds if necessary. The vulnerability can lead to security issues in Node.js applications, including potential unauthorized access to resources and possible security bypass.
Why it matters
The fast-uri vulnerability can lead to security issues in Node.js applications. Developers and administrators should assess exposure, upgrade to fixed versions, and verify affected systems.
- Potential unauthorized access to resources
- Possible security bypass in Node.js applications
- Verification of affected systems and versions required
- Upgrade to fixed versions to prevent exploitation
Technical summary
The fast-uri library is vulnerable to improper path equivalence in relative reference normalization. An attacker-supplied or user-supplied relative reference can escape its intended directory and point at a different resource. The vulnerability can lead to security issues in Node.js applications, including potential unauthorized access to resources and possible security bypass. The issue is fixed in fast-uri 2.4.8, 3.1.9, and 4.2.3. Users should upgrade to one of these versions or later. As a workaround, resolve a relative reference against its absolute base first and normalize the absolute result instead of normalizing the reference beforehand.
Defensive priority
Upgrade to fixed versions and verify affected systems
Recommended defensive actions
- Upgrade to fast-uri version 2.4.8, 3.1.9, or 4.2.3
- Verify affected systems and apply workarounds if necessary
- Monitor for potential security issues in Node.js applications using fast-uri
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
- Review the supplied official advisory or CVE record to validate affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance
- Plan vendor-supported updates or mitigations through normal change control where exposure is confirmed
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
