What is CVE-2026-25150?

CVE-2026-25150 is a critical vulnerability in QwikDev qwik, published on 3 Feb 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Qwik is a performance focused javascript framework. Prior to version 1.19.0, a prototype pollution vulnerability exists in the formToObj() function within @builder.io/qwik-city middleware. The function processes form field names with dot notation (e.g., user.name) to create nested objects, but fails to sanitize dangerous property names like __proto__, constructor, and prototype. This allows unauthenticated attackers to pollute Object.prototype by sending crafted HTTP POST requests, potentially leading to privilege escalation, authentication bypass, or denial of service. This issue has been patched in version 1.19.0.

Weakness: CWE-1321
