CVE-2026-48933  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-190  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade node to version 22.23.0, 24.17.0, 26.3.1 or higher.

Overview

node is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound in the WebCrypto cipher output length calculation in src/crypto/crypto_aes.cc, where data_len + blockSize + tag_len is computed as a signed int before being passed to OpenSSL. An attacker can abort the process and cause a denial of service by passing an input around a multiple of 2 GiB to subtle.encrypt(), which overflows that length computation and crashes the runtime.
