    CVE-2026-8711 (GCVE-0-2026-8711)

    Vulnerability from nvd – Published: 2026-05-19 14:04 – Updated: 2026-05-21 18:29 X_F5
    VLAI
    Title
    NGINX JavaScript vulnerability
    Summary
    NGINX JavaScript has a vulnerability when the js_fetch_proxy directive is configured with at least one client-controlled NGINX variable (for example, $http_*, $arg_*, $cookie_*) and a location invoking the ngx.fetch() operation from NGINX JavaScript. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP requests. This may cause a heap buffer overflow in the NGINX worker process leading to a restart. Additionally, attackers can execute code on systems with Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) disabled or when the attacker can bypass ASLR. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
