How to fix?

Upgrade axios to version 0.31.1, 1.15.1 or higher.

Overview

axios is a promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs via the isLoopback host check in the proxy helper, which relied on a static list of LOOPBACK_ADDRESSES. An attacker can route requests around an intended proxy by supplying loopback-style destinations such as 127.x.x.x, ::1, or IPv4-mapped IPv6 loopback addresses in a URL. This lets traffic to local services escape proxy controls, exposing internal endpoints and allowing requests to reach services the user expected to be mediated by a proxy.

Note: This vulnerability is the result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2025-62718
