Upgrade @nuxt/nitro-server to version 3.21.6, 4.4.6 or higher.
Overview
@nuxt/nitro-server is a Nitro server integration for Nuxt
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to HTTP Request Smuggling via the __nuxt_island endpoint when responses are not properly bound to request props, allowing shared-cache poisoning. An attacker can cause users to receive attacker-controlled HTML by priming a shared cache with crafted requests, potentially leading to script execution if unsafe HTML sinks are present in application-authored islands.
Note: This is only exploitable if a shared intermediary cache (such as a CDN or reverse-proxy) keys /__nuxt_island/* requests on the path only, and if an island component passes untrusted props into an unsafe HTML sink.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by configuring intermediary caches to key /__nuxt_island/* on the full query string, and by auditing island components to ensure props do not flow into unsafe HTML sinks such as v-html or innerHTML.
