An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-45090 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox (Go): affected all versions up to 1.2.2; no fix listed\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox (Go): affected all versions up to 1.2.2; no fix listed\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.13.0\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.13.0\n- github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.13.0\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-2026-45090/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45090/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-45090","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45090/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-45090","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2g4x-fq3j-cgq4","GO-2026-4999"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XSS scanner tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can crash the Dalfox server by triggering a panic via closed-channel writes during parameter analysis.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-404","name":"Improper Resource Shutdown or Release"},{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"Dalfox is a powerful open-source XSS scanner and utility focused on automation. Prior to 2.13.0, ParameterAnalysis in pkg/scanning/parameterAnalysis.go runs two sequential worker stages that both write to the same results channel. The channel is correctly closed after the first stage completes (close(results) at line 438), but the second stage — which processes POST-body parameters (dp) — is then launched with the same already-closed channel as its output. When a scanned parameter is reflected, processParams executes results \u003c- paramResult on the closed channel, triggering a Go runtime panic that crashes the entire dalfox process. In server mode, the crash is remotely triggerable by any unauthenticated caller who can reach the REST API, because the default configuration has no API key and the second stage activates whenever options.Data != \"\" (i.e., the attacker supplies the data field) and the target reflects at least one parameter. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.13.0.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Dalfox: Unauthenticated Remote DoS via Closed-Channel Write in `ParameterAnalysis` (server mode)","id":"CVE-2026-45090","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":6,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"sealed-env: TOTP secret embedded in unseal token payload (enterprise mode)","id":"CVE-2026-45091"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/hahwul/dalfox","source":"GO-2026-4999"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.2.2"],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-2g4x-fq3j-cgq4"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.2.2"],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/hahwul/dalfox","source":"GHSA-2g4x-fq3j-cgq4"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.13.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-2g4x-fq3j-cgq4"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.13.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2","source":"GHSA-2g4x-fq3j-cgq4"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["2.13.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/hahwul/dalfox/v2","source":"GO-2026-4999"}],"prev":{"headline":"Dalfox: Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Create/Append via `output` Option in Dalfox Server Mode","id":"CVE-2026-45089"},"products":["dalfox"],"published":"2026-05-27","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-28","vendors":["hahwul"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can crash the Dalfox server by triggering a panic via closed-channel writes during parameter analysis.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45090/"}
