GHSA-qrxm-fqhp-jwvm: undici (CVE-2026-87018)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
undici	npm	>=4.2.1, <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.

Affected: the undici npm package, versions from 4.2.1 up to but not including 6.29.1, from 7.0.0 up to but not including 7.30.1, and from 8.0.0 up to but not including 8.12.2. A malicious or compromised HTTPS server that the client connects to can trigger a TLS 1.2 renegotiation presenting a certificate that does not match the requested host, which makes the Node.js client process crash. Upgrade to undici 6.29.1, 7.30.1, or 8.12.2. Until then, the source suggests restricting connections to TLS 1.3, where renegotiation is not possible.
