{ "cve": [ "CVE-2026-106074" ], "vulnerable": "22.x || 24.x || 26.x", "patched": "^22.23.4 || ^24.22.1 || ^26.12.1", "ref": "https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2026-security-releases", "description": "crypto.randomUUID() and randomInt() entropy caches are saved into user-land startup snapshots and SEAs, so every process repeats the same values", "overview": "A flaw in Node.js `crypto` causes the internal entropy caches used by `crypto.randomUUID()`, `crypto.randomUUIDv7()`, and `crypto.randomInt()` to be saved into user-land startup snapshots (`--build-snapshot`) and single executable applications built with `useSnapshot`.\n\nIf any of these functions, or an API that relies on them such as `URL.createObjectURL()`, is called while the snapshot is built, every process started from that snapshot returns the same values until the cache is refilled: up to 127 UUIDs and about 1,000 `randomInt()` values. Identifiers expected to be unique can collide across processes, and values issued by one process can be predicted by observing another.\n\nThis vulnerability affects Node.js **26.x**, **24.x**, and **22.x**.", "affectedEnvironments": [ "all" ], "severity": "medium" }
