Summary
node-axios vulnerabilities
Details
Ameer Assadi discovered that Axios did not properly handle certain hostnames when applying NO_PROXY rules. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass proxy restrictions and access internal services, resulting in server-side request forgery. (CVE-2025-62718)
It was discovered that Axios did not properly protect certain HTTP header values from prototype pollution. An attacker could possibly use this issue to inject malicious values into outbound requests, resulting in HTTP header injection. (CVE-2026-40175)
Sachin Patil and Amol Patil discovered that Axios did not properly apply NO_PROXY rules to certain loopback addresses. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass proxy restrictions and access internal services, resulting in server-side request forgery. (CVE-2026-42043)
Yu Bao discovered that Axios did not properly protect JSON response processing from prototype pollution. An attacker could possibly use this issue to modify values in application responses, resulting in authorization bypass or privilege escalation. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-42044)
It was discovered that Axios did not properly protect certain request configuration options from prototype pollution. An attacker could possibly use this issue to modify outbound HTTP requests, resulting in security restrictions being bypassed. This issue only affected Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-42264)

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
