An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-44577 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- next (npm): affected from 10.0.0; fixed in 15.5.16\n- next (npm): affected from 10.0.0; fixed in 15.5.16\n- next (npm): affected from 16.0.0; fixed in 16.2.5\n- next (npm): affected from 16.0.0; fixed in 16.2.5\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-2026-44577/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44577/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-44577","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44577/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-44577","record":{"aliases":["CLEANSTART-2026-OD37037","CLEANSTART-2026-OP77643","GHSA-h64f-5h5j-jqjh","MINI-2g72-w343-q4h6","MINI-f238-fxxw-f73j","MINI-vw58-mh62-f8v5","MINI-wr8r-q2mm-whr8","ROOT-APP-NPM-CVE-2026-44577"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Next.js framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause out-of-memory denial of service in self-hosted Next.js apps by requesting large local images via the Image Optimization API.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"next.js","vendor":"vercel"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"Next.js is a React framework for building full-stack web applications. From 10.0.0 to before 15.5.16 and 16.2.5, when self-hosting Next.js with the default image loader, the Image Optimization API fetches local images entirely into memory without enforcing a maximum size limit. An attacker could cause out-of-memory conditions by requesting large local assets from the /_next/image endpoint that match the images.localPatterns configuration (by default, all patterns are allowed).
