An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2025-11953 in the wild since at least 5 Feb 2026.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 18.0.0; fixed in 18.0.1\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 18.0.0; fixed in 18.0.1\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 19.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 19.1.2\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 19.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 19.1.2\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 20.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 20.0.0\n- @react-native-community/cli (npm): affected from 20.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 20.0.0\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 18.0.0; fixed in 18.0.1\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 18.0.0; fixed in 18.0.1\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 19.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 19.1.2\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 19.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 19.1.2\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 20.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 20.0.0\n- @react-native-community/cli-server-api (npm): affected from 20.0.0-alpha.0; fixed in 20.0.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-11953/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-11953/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-11953","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-11953/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-11953","record":{"aliases":["CLSA-2026-1789566692","CLSA-2026-1789568169","CLSA-2026-1790866461","CLSA-2026-1790869390","CLSA-2026-1790870094","CLSA-2026-1790871357","CLSA-2026-1790877607","CLSA-2026-1790877670","CLSA-2026-1790878081","CLSA-2026-1790878902","CLSA-2026-1790879434","CLSA-2026-1790884245","CLSA-2026-1792226841","CLSA-2026-1792226842","CLSA-2026-1792226843","CLSA-2026-1792226844","CLSA-2026-1792226845","CLSA-2026-1792226846","CLSA-2026-1792226847","CLSA-2026-1792226848","CLSA-2026-1792226849","CLSA-2026-1792226850","CLSA-2026-1792226851","CLSA-2026-1792226852","CLSA-2026-1792255998","CLSA-2026-1792255999","CLSA-2026-1792256000","CLSA-2026-1792256001","CLSA-2026-1792256002","CLSA-2026-1792256003","CLSA-2026-1792256004","CLSA-2026-1792256005","CLSA-2026-1792256007","CLSA-2026-1792256008","CLSA-2026-1792256009","CLSA-2026-1792595218","CLSA-2026-1792595220","CLSA-2026-1792595221","CLSA-2026-1792595222","CLSA-2026-1792595223","CLSA-2026-1792595224","CLSA-2026-1792595225","CLSA-2026-1792595226","CLSA-2026-1792595227","CLSA-2026-1792595228","CLSA-2026-1792595229","GHSA-399j-vxmf-hjvr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"React Native CLI","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary commands via the Metro Development Server exposed by React Native Community CLI.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"JFROG","cpe":[{"product":"react_native_community_cli","vendor":"react-native-community"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"The Metro Development Server, which is opened by the React Native Community CLI, binds to external interfaces by default.
