    <title>GHSA-hcpx-6fm6-wx23 — Axios form serializer maxDepth bypass via {} metatoken</title>
    <updated>2026-09-30T20:32:36.577800+00:00</updated>

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> npm: axios</p>
<p>## Summary</p>
<p>Axios versions in the fixed lines for GHSA-62hf-57xw-28j9 still contain an incomplete depth-limit bypass in `lib/helpers/toFormData.js`. When serializing an object with a top-level key ending in `{}`, axios calls `JSON.stringify()` on that value before the `formSerializer.maxDepth` guard can inspect the nested structure.</p>
<p>An attacker who can control object keys and nested values passed by an application into axios form or parameter serialization can trigger a raw `RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded`, causing a denial of service in the affected request path.</p>
<p>## Impact</p>
<p>The impact is availability only. No confidentiality or integrity impact was confirmed.</p>
<p>Server-side applications are the primary concern when they accept user-controlled input and pass it into axios as `data` or `params` for `multipart/form-data`, `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, or default parameter serialization. Browser impact is limited to the page or request context unless the application builds a broader failure mode around the thrown exception.</p>
<p>The attack requires control over a top-level object key ending in `{}` and a deeply nested object value. The option `formSerializer.metaTokens: false` is not a workaround because it only changes the emitted key name; the value is still stringified.</p>
<p>## Affected Functionality</p>
<p>Affected paths include:</p>
<p>- `lib/helpers/toFormData.js` when a top-level key ends with `{}`.
- `lib/helpers/toURLEncodedForm.js`, which delegates to `helpers.defaul…</p></div>
