An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-34780 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- electron (npm): affected from 39.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 39.8.0\n- electron (npm): affected from 39.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 39.8.0\n- electron (npm): affected from 40.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 40.7.0\n- electron (npm): affected from 40.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 40.7.0\n- electron (npm): affected from 41.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 41.0.0-beta.8\n- electron (npm): affected from 41.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 41.0.0-beta.8\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-2026-34780/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-34780/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-34780","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-34780/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-34780","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jfqg-hf23-qpw2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Electron framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass context isolation in Electron apps using bridged VideoFrame objects to access Node.js APIs, requiring an upgrade to patched versions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"electron","vendor":"electronjs"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-501","name":"Trust Boundary Violation"},{"id":"CWE-668","name":"Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere"},{"id":"CWE-1188","name":"Initialization of a Resource with an Insecure Default"}],"description":"Electron is a framework for writing cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. From versions 39.0.0-alpha.1 to before 39.8.0, 40.0.0-alpha.1 to before 40.7.0, and 41.0.0-alpha.1 to before 41.0.0-beta.8, apps that pass VideoFrame objects (from the WebCodecs API) across the contextBridge are vulnerable to a context isolation bypass. An attacker who can execute JavaScript in the main world (for example, via XSS) can use a bridged VideoFrame to gain access to the isolated world, including any Node.js APIs exposed to the preload script. Apps are only affected if a preload script returns, resolves, or passes a VideoFrame object to the main world via contextBridge.exposeInMainWorld(). Apps that do not bridge VideoFrame objects are not affected.
