NewCVE-2026-75604 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade next to version 15.5.24, 16.3.3 or higher.
Overview
next is a react framework.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal in FileSystemCache.getFilePath in packages/next/src/server/lib/incremental-cache/file-system-cache.ts. An attacker can trigger remote code execution on a Windows-hosted server by sending a request that causes the incremental cache to resolve a crafted cache key containing backslashes outside the intended cache directory. When Pages Router or App Router code runs without Cache Components on Windows, the cache path handling can write or read files outside the cache root, letting the attacker influence server-side files that the application later executes.
