GHSA-9fm3-97px-rjf6: undici (CVE-2026-109932)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
undici	npm	>=5.15.0, <6.29.1 \|\| >=7.0.0, <7.30.1 \|\| >=8.0.0, <8.12.2	6.29.1, 7.30.1, 8.12.2

Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

undici's WebSocket client, including Node.js's bundled globalThis.WebSocket, is affected in versions from 5.15.0 up to but not including 6.29.1, 7.30.1, and 8.12.2 (npm undici, with 5.x, 6.x, 7.x and 8.x in scope). A remote, unauthenticated malicious or compromised WebSocket server can send many small PING frames without reading the client's automatic PONG replies, causing unbounded memory growth and process termination, which is an availability impact. Upgrade to undici 6.29.1, 7.30.1, or 8.12.2, which bound the outbound queue; the source lists no workarounds.
