RHSA-2026:45783
Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-07-25 23:19 - Updated: 2026-08-09 13:13A flaw was found in undici. When undici processes Set-Cookie headers, it incorrectly interprets the SameSite attribute, accepting partial matches instead of exact ones. This allows a malicious server to downgrade a cookie's SameSite policy to a less secure setting, potentially leading to unintended information disclosure or a weakening of security protections for the user.

A flaw was found in Node.js. This vulnerability allows a bypass of the Permission Model enforcement due to path misvalidation within the `process.report.writeReport()` function. An attacker could exploit this to bypass intended security boundaries, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information or other confidentiality impacts under specific configurations.
