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-2026-8711 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 NGINX JavaScript. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2026-8711/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8711/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-8711","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8711/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-8711","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2026-8711","AZL-87117","BELL-CVE-2026-8711","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-8711","GHSA-pj32-6rxc-gcmq","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-8711","USN-8425-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"NGINX JavaScript module","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can trigger a heap buffer overflow in NGINX JavaScript, potentially causing a service restart or remote code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"f5","cpe":[{"product":"njs","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":9.2,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-122","name":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"NGINX JavaScript has a vulnerability when the js_fetch_proxy directive is configured with at least one client-controlled NGINX variable (for example, $http_*, $arg_*, $cookie_*) and a location invoking the ngx.fetch() operation from NGINX JavaScript.
