CVE-2026-46342 nuxt CVE debrief
CVE-2026-46342 is a vulnerability in Nuxt, an open-source web development framework for Vue.js. The vulnerability affects Nuxt versions 3.1.0 to before 3.21.6 and 4.0.0-alpha.1 to before 4.4.6, as well as @nuxt/nitro-server versions 3.20.0 to before 3.21.6 and 4.0.0-alpha.1 to before 4.4.6. The /__nuxt_island/* endpoint accepts attacker-controlled props query/body parameters and renders any island component without verifying that the URL-resident hash (<Name>_<hashId>.json) was actually issued for those inputs by <NuxtIsland>. The hash is computed and embedded client-side but never validated server-side, allowing the same path to return materially different responses depending on the query.
