{ "cve": [ "CVE-2026-106071" ], "vulnerable": "26.x", "patched": "^26.12.1", "ref": "https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2026-security-releases", "description": "Permission Model filesystem over-grant via wildcard radix lookup", "overview": "A flaw in Node.js Permission Model filesystem enforcement can grant access to paths that do not match a wildcard `--allow-fs-read` or `--allow-fs-write` rule.\n\nWhen the requested path is shorter than the prefix of a wildcard grant, the radix tree lookup stops comparing early and treats the path as a match. For example, `--allow-fs-read=/etc/passwd.*` also allows reading `/etc/passwd`. This requires the wildcard grant to sit directly under the root of the permission tree, for example when it is the only grant for that scope. This is a different root cause from CVE-2026-58043.\n\nThis vulnerability affects Node.js **26.x**.", "affectedEnvironments": [ "all" ], "severity": "low" }
